This year, CCS celebrates 50 years of "Education with a Higher Purpose."

Our theme is based on Hebrews 13:8 - “Faithful Forever”.

Beginning this August, we are adjusting times that we will begin and end the school day. We will be starting the school day at 7:45 am and ending the day at 2:45 pm. Each morning, drop off will begin at 7:15 am.

We believe that this will alleviate issues with Columbus East High School’s drop-off and pick-up traffic. We also believe that this will allow for a more fluid traffic flow and will make drop-off and pick-up safer for everyone.

These changes will also change our office hours. The office will be open at 7:15 am and will remain open until 3:45 pm.

Back to School Night - 6-7:30

The evening will include meeting your teacher, dropping off supplies, Prayer Walk, and ending the evening with ice cream in our lunchroom.

PTF will also be set up so people can sign up for helping them.

Fall fundraiser information will be announced soon.

Sports physicals can be completed during your student’s annual wellness visit with their primary doctor - schedule that appointment to avoid any delays in participation.
