The CDA Family Buzz

Good morning, CDA Families,

It is hard to believe we are entering November—turkey month and the beginning of the holiday season!

Thank you to Ms. Johnson and her team for hosting our first annual Fall Festival bringing both campuses together. Our scholars, from K4 through eighth grade, had a wonderful time! We appreciate every family member and volunteer who contributed, with special thanks to the parents who donated food items. Your generosity made this a memorable celebration, and we loved hearing your positive feedback.

Our Red Ribbon celebration was also a success! We enjoyed dressing up alongside our scholars as we pledged to stay drug free. Special thanks to Ms. Riddick, Ms. Johnson, and their team for making this year’s Red Ribbon Week our best yet! Families, thank you for supporting the activities that make our school community so special.

Our character trait for November is Accountability. Please talk with your scholar about taking responsibility for their actions, completing assignments, keeping promises, and owning mistakes. These everyday conversations reinforce what we teach at school.

We look forward to celebrating our scholars at our Thanksgiving and Awards Ceremonies:

Elementary: Wednesday, November 18, at 10:00 a.m.
Middle School: Thursday, November 19, at 10:00 a.m.

Tomorrow is Election Day, and there will be no school. If you have not already voted, please take time to exercise your right to vote.

Thank you for your continued partnership. Let’s carry this spirit of teamwork and care into November!

Yours in education,
Dr. Shawn Johnson
