Morning Devotion and Weekly Chapel at CCS 🌅 Morning Devotion and Weekly Chapel at CCS 🌅

User uploaded image
zoom_out_map

Two of our most favorite times of the week at CCS are morning worship and devotion and weekly chapel services.


We love beginning our school day each day with a song of worship and morning devotion led by Mr. Yearwood. Faculty members also take part in leading devotion and we also love having our students take on leadership roles during this time as well.

Some scriptures from this week were: Hebrews 13:8, Proverbs 15:28, Proverbs 17:9, Proverbs 27:9.


Each week all CCS students participate in a chapel service. During chapel, students participate in age appropriate lessons led by Christian leaders in our community, missionaries, and teachers.

Support and Care

Sometimes you just need a little pep talk from Mrs. Candase to make it all better. We love our elementary counselor, Mrs. Candase Wilkins!

Read Aloud Time

Reading aloud is a great way to model and to help students build essential literacy, comprehension, and social-emotional skills. Carpet time with read alouds is a favorite time for elementary students. This strategy is great for home too!

Imagination Creations

Building Physical and Mental Strength

Lower school PE students enjoy playing games that challenge them physically and mentally. Concentration, listening for instructions, and the spirit of competition make for great fun during class.

New Challenges

3rd grade students are rising to the challenge as they tackle harder concepts and higher level thinking tasks. Third grade is often a big jump for students as they transition to the requirement of greater comprehension skills.

Assessing for Mastery

Student assessment is a helpful tool to make sure that students are on the right track. Test day is a great day for students to show off their understanding of new concepts and content.

Why so many pictures?

Sometimes sending your child to school is hard! It's tempting to worry about what they are doing and if they are making it okay away from home. We hope that being able to see a few pictures each week will be a comfort to you and give you a glimpse of what they are experiencing each week at CCS.
