CHRISTMAS PROGRAM
Parents- please review information about CLA's annual Christmas program! This was sent home last week. Tickets for the Christmas dinner went on sale this past Monday, November 18th. The program itself is free to attend. To print the order form at home, click here.
SEVERE WEATHER!
For information about school closings or delays, please check out the school facebook page, where we will post closings, delays or other information. We will also send out a school-wide email as well as post on local TV stations. We ask that you do not call or text staff members, but to check all of the sources above. We attempt to make a decision by 6:30 am but sometimes it is a bit later, so check sources before leaving for school. Stay warm and safe!
Outdoor Recess with Snow on the ground
We try to go outside for recess if at all possible. The only two conditions that hold us back from outdoor recess are rain and wind chill. We will go outside most of the winter if these two conditions allow. If there is snow on the ground, ONLY students who have appropriate snow gear (boots, gloves, hats, coats) will be allowed to go in the snow. Those without gear will be required to stay on the hard surfaces out of the snow. PLEASE send warm outdoor gear through the entire winter!
From the Principal's Desk
I am thankful that God has given us an objective knowledge of right and wrong! I was blessed to substitute in our high school Bible class this week, and as we shared together about this concept from Romans 2, a sense of agreement among the students was such a blessing. I am THANKFUL!
In Christ,
Mr. Horning
