HELP US GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT CCS!
We need your help! We would like to get the word out to the community about our school. Word of mouth seems to be the way many families hear about CCS.
Would you be willing to take/send the "About CCS" page to your church, workplace, gym, etc?
We have copies in the office if you would like them preprinted. A PDF is attached.
Thank you for everything you do for CCS - it would be so hard to make this place run well without our CCS families!
