Each day at CCS, students gather for a song of worship, a scripture and time of devotion, and the singing of the doxology. Some of the scriptures used this past week during morning devotion are listed below.

Some of this week's scriptures were:

• Luke 12:32
• I Corinthians 13:7
• James 1:2-5
• James 5:7-8
• Philippians 1:21
• Ecclesiastes 3:12
• Exodus 20:12

The last day to order is Tuesday, March 18th. It's a faster ordering time because of Spring Break.

The Cullman County Public Library Bookmobile is back! The students are so excited about checking out books. We are so thankful for their visit and look forward to more days to come!

These sweet girls were caught practicing reading while they were waiting in afternoon carline. They may not be ready to read all the words in the Bible yet, but they sure are excited about trying!

1st grader, Zain, is always telling others about his favorite books of the Bible. One day this week he also wanted to show his older peer the Bible story he had learned that day in class. Thank you, Levi, for being so patient, taking interest and being a good role model!

Students and teachers are enjoying the warmer temperatures by getting outside for learning activities and snack time.

Sometimes students beat us to the punch or remind us of things we forget to do. Thank you, Elisabeth DeCicco, for stepping up as a leader and ending track practice with prayer! She is a great example of a student leader with a heart for Christ and for serving others.

Lower school students took some time this week to brush up on severe weather procedures. Having drills helps to not only prepare students for what to do, but also to ease any fears they may have.

Sergeant Jeff Lawson spoke at upper school chapel this week. He took some time to share his personal testimony, give encouragement to the students, and also provide a good safety reminder about cell phone apps and video games that are an open space for predators.

Art class with Mrs. Griffin continues to be a fan favorite. Classes are learning about different kinds of art, developing skills, and growing their creative minds.

9th grade students participated in the Keeping It Real program with the Cullman Economic Development office. This activity helps students think through real-life scenarios as they build and try to maintain a family budget.

3rd grade students took a trip to our education neighbors and watched a performance of "Charlotte's Web" at Cullman High School.

Photography students worked this week on taking headshots of each drama and chorus student for the playbill that is being designed by the journalism class for the upcoming spring performance.

10th-12th grade students learned more about Pensacola Christian College, it's degree programs, scholarship opportunities, and campus life on Friday when we had a husband and wife team from the college visit with us.

Juniors and Seniors threw a party for their dual enrollment English teacher, Dr. Nix, this week. Congratulations to the Nix family on the new addition to arrive very soon!
