Elementary School

Mr. Shelley and his 6th-grade students showcased their exceptional talents in collaboration with the Philadelphia Police Department at the Welcome America Press Conference and have been invited to the Philadelphia Tree Lighting at City Hall! This partnership highlights the importance of community engagement and the role of youth in fostering positive connections.

The 5th graders attended a class trip to the Kimmel Center where they saw "Set the Stage." Set The Stage provides students with an introduction to the magic of musical theater. Through engaging acting, singing, and dancing exercises, our students discovered the essential elements of musical theater productions. They explored the fascinating world behind Broadway shows and had a great time!

We're thrilled to announce that throughout the month of October, 197 students at our Elementary School achieved perfect attendance! That's an amazing accomplishment! Let's keep the momentum going!

Lights, camera, action! Our Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd graders were captivated by the Kilowatt Kitchen performance! They learned about energy conservation in such a fun way!

Congratulations to our fantastic students who are showing their love for reading! The CAP faculty loves catching you all in the act!

What a SPOOKtacular day at Trunk or Treat! Our CAP faculty and students had a blast dressing up, passing out candy, and hanging out with some amazing local firefighters!

A heartfelt shoutout to Mr. Burns for organizing CAP's annual coat drive! Our dedicated staff came together to donate new and gently used coats, hats, and gloves to help keep our students warm this winter.

Additionally, thanks to staff contributions, we provided Thanksgiving meals for 25 families this year. It’s initiatives like these that strengthen our community ties and showcase the power of collective giving.
