Highlights from the Week
Finishing Strong through the 4th Quarter
Dr. Boyd visited lower school students this week for morning devotion and talked to them about doing their best through the last quarter of school. More importantly he reminded them about finishing the race that Paul described by accepting Jesus Christ as their personal savior.
Shamrocks and the Trinity
Ms. Tucker's 3rd grade class learned how St. Patrick used the shamrock to explain the trinity.
St. Patrick used the shamrock, with three leaves on one stem, to signify The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit which is the Holy Trinity and a symbol of Christianity.

We have entered our season of open enrollment for new families. If you have friends that have been asking you about CCS, let them know that our classes are filling up. We have some openings, but we are close to capacity in several areas. The best way for someone interested to start is to book a tour and see what our campus and classes are like.
CCS families have the opportunity for FREE professional and confidential help with marriage, individual, child, and family issues. Mrs. Holly Powell, a Marriage and Family Therapy Intern, under the supervision of Mrs. Yearwood and Dr. Drew Jamieson (AL MFT License #322) will be offering therapy services at our school.
Mrs. Powell specializes in couples therapy and has spent much of the past three years researching the effects of ADHD on relationships. At CCS, she will be available to see students, families, individual adults, and couples. Her goal is to help people develop skills to improve relationships and begin to cope in healthy ways the challenges life throws at us.
