We are having our first ever Turkey Trot taking place during each class’s PE time.

Students will be racing a set # of laps around the gym. Participation is optional—students who choose not to run will sit in the designated area and cheer on their fellow “turkeys.”

Festive prizes will be awarded as well as a certificate. Winners will be determined based on the fastest runner time within each grade level.

Students who plan to participate are highly encouraged to come dressed as turkeys or in a fun Thanksgiving theme!

December 3rd

Anyone can read along - Mrs. Adams will be making activity packets to send home with students who are not in 3rd-6th grade or able to stay after school.

For some kids, a meal they can make themselves means independence, safety, and comfort.

We’re collecting shelf-stable, no-prep foods that kids can easily prepare on their own—like oatmeal cups, pasta bowls, fruit pouches, PB&J kits, and more.

Every item makes a difference.
Every donation matters. ❤️

Bring in "Easy Foods" to class by December 17th.

🎄 For PreK - 6th Grade Students 🎄

Details are coming soon! Mark your calendars!

Our Middle School STEM students are embarking on exciting new engineering and design challenges, and we need your help to stock our classroom! We are challenging students to use recycled and repurposed materials to build amazing projects—from simple machines to architectural models.

Please check your recycling bins and craft drawers for the following clean and empty items to donate:

• Cardboard: TP/Paper towel tubes, cereal/Kleenex boxes, egg cartons

• Plastics: Bottle caps, rinsed-out bottles, plastic fruit containers

• Hardware/Misc.: Screws, nuts, bolts, CDs, pipe cleaners, craft sticks

Drop off all donations in the clearly marked bin in the main lobby through the end of the year. Thank you for supporting hands-on innovation!

We’re excited to announce the relaunch of our RaiseRight Gift Card Program! This program has been part of our school family for many years, but it’s time to bring it back in full force as we look ahead to the 2026–2027 school year.

Here’s how it works:

• Purchase gift cards (physical or digital) from hundreds of popular retailers through RaiseRight.

• Use them for your everyday shopping—groceries, gas, restaurants, clothing, travel, and more.

• Every purchase earns a rebate that benefits both your family and our school!

The best part?

• 50% of everything earned between now and May 31, 2026, will be credited directly to your tuition for the 2026–2027 school year.
• The other 50% helps cover program costs and support our school.

This is a simple way to reduce your family’s tuition costs while helping Columbus Christian School thrive—all by making purchases you already make every day.

Getting Started:

1. Visit RaiseRight.

2. Use our enrollment code: EBD8F1941L567.

3. Shop, save, and support!

Thank you for joining us in bringing RaiseRight back stronger than ever. Together, we can make a big impact for our families and our school!
