Message from The PTSO
The CSP MS/HS PTSO is committed to ensuring that all students have the opportunity to participate in school sponsored activities and programs. To support this goal, the PTSO has initiated Tiger Funds. The purpose of the Tiger Fund is to promote inclusive and equitable access by providing financial assistance for paid CSP activities to enable greater student and family involvement. Tiger Fund requests will be submitted to and reviewed by the CSP Principal via an application form. All applications will be treated as confidential and with respect. Examples of requests are field trips, special events at the school, PTSO activities, graduation or uniform needs. Please contact Mr Owens (dowens@mycsp.org) or Ms Morataya (mirataya@aol.com) with questions, or if you would like to donate to this fund.
Senior Baby Photos Needed
The Yearbook team is so excited to kick off the production of a student-led and organized yearbook this year, and we need your help.
If your senior student has not already done so, please submit a baby photo of your child to the yearbook club ASAP (csayers@mycsp.org or badams@mycsp.org). Any photo from below the age of 5 are perfect!
You can purchase your yearbook now using this link https://www.treering.com/purchase?PassCode=101758911905299
This year, the yearbook is entirely student-run, as a club instead of a class! We are excited to make the best yearbook yet, with a new
design interface and big ideas. Stay tuned for more information regarding Senior Shout-outs, and purchase your yearbook today!
Thank you,
The Yearbook Club

Federal Parent-Pupil Survey - Open until January 30, 2026
Parents who are active military or who live or work on Federal Property in Maryland are
asked to complete this year’s Federal Impact Aid Survey. It opened on September 30, 2025.
You will be asked to verify your home address and identify if it is located on federal
property. You will also complete sections identifying if a family member is in the military
or works on federally owned property in Maryland. The survey should only take a couple
of minutes to complete and be assured, all data collected is kept completely confidential.
Why Complete This Survey
Anne Arundel County Public Schools, like many local school districts across the United
States, include within our boundaries parcels of land that are owned by the Federal
Government or that have been removed from the local tax rolls by the Federal Government.
Federal property is exempt from local property taxes. By submitting an application to the
Department of Education each January, AACPS receives approximately $2 million to assist
in educating all our students.
