Please keep an eye on your inbox next week for an official email from the Cherry Creek School District (CCSD) regarding required Parent Forms. Parent Forms will be available starting Monday, July 6.

Every school year, CCSD requires families to update their child's information. These forms must be completed before students can return to CCA in August.

How to Complete Your Forms:

1. Log into your account at my.cherrycreekschools.org.

2. Click on the PowerSchool/Parent Forms tile.

3. Fill out and submit the required forms as soon as possible.

💡 Need help? For step-by-step instructions and more details, you can visit the CCSD Back to School Hub.

📸 Understanding Media Waivers

Part of the Parent Forms process includes selecting your media waiver preferences. To help clarify your options:

• District Media Waiver: Allows both CCA and CCSD to feature your student on our school/district websites and newsletters.

• Outside Media Outlets Waiver: Allows your child to be featured or published on external platforms, such as official social media channels.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this so we can ensure a smooth start to the school year for all our students!

It is not too late to log your volunteer hours for the 2025–2026 school year on Track It Forward.

Our volunteer reporting year officially ends June 30.

Please note that families who have not completed their volunteer hour commitment will be contacted in July.

Thank you for your incredible partnership and support this year!

💻 iReady Lessons (Available until July 14th)

Students can continue accessing personalized reading and math lessons from home. We recommend completing a minimum of two lessons per week (one in each subject).

• Using an iPad? Watch this instructional video to learn how to download the Classlink and iReady apps.

• Using a computer? Reference this help document for logging in.

📚 Daily Reading Practice

Consistent reading for just 15–30 minutes a day is the single best way to maintain academic skills. Check out these great resources:

• Arapahoe Libraries Summer Reading Program: Visit to earn prizes and free books!

• SORA Online Library: Digitally check out books right from home.

• 7th & 8th Graders: Don't forget to check out this special middle school reading resource put together by Ms. Bradley!

✏️ Summer Readiness Packets

Summer Readiness packets review the core standards essential for success in your student's upcoming grade level. You can also review the expectations and curriculum maps to see what content lies ahead.

• 🎉 Elementary Perk (Grades 1–4): Students who complete and return their packet during the first week of school will be invited to a special pizza party lunch bunch!

Thank you for being such incredible partners in your child’s education. Have a restful, safe, and wonderful summer!

We’ve organized our lists by grade level to make your shopping trip as smooth as possible.

While the deadline to have school supplies shipped directly to CCA has passed, you can still order school supply kits to be delivered to your home over the summer.

Please utilize the shipping calculator on SchoolToolBox.com for rates and delivery options.

The PTO is seeking volunteers to assist with organizing and hosting the Used Uniform Sale. Volunteers are needed on Wednesday, July 22, Thursday, July 23, and Thursday, August 6.

Please consider lending a hand!

Make It Your Own

The Sideline Store offers a massive variety of logo and customization options to help you show your CCA pride exactly how you want.

While we love seeing our community represent CCA, please keep in mind that items from the Sideline Store are for spirit wear purposes only. These items do not meet the daily school dress code requirements and are not to be worn by students during school hours.

Champions at Cherry Creek Academy is now enrolling for the upcoming school year! Champions provides a space where students can finish homework with help, enjoy snacks, and play with their peers after school.

CCA is continuing our partnership with Cherry Creek School District's Food and Nutrition services to bring a quality and nutritious breakfast and lunch to our CCA students. For more information, attached is a link to the CCSD Food and Nutrition Program Website.

We want to hear from you! What is going well? What questions, concerns, or comments do you have? Interested in joining a committee or getting involved some other way? Please let us know here and we will work to address your questions in upcoming newsletters and/or in 1:1 communication.
