Eagle Weekly

CCS CEREAL DRIVE: During the summer months, many families lose access to school meals, making the need for food assistance critical. We are proud to partner with THV11 and The Arkansas Foodbank for this year’s Summer Cereal Drive to help bridge this gap for students in our community.

Through this Friday, May 8th, we are collecting boxes of cereal, granola bars, PopTarts and instant oatmeal. There are drop-off locations at both the elementary and upper school.

Let’s win the Cheerio! Award! As a first-year participant, CCS is eligible for the Cheerio! Award, given to the new team that collects the most cereal. Let’s show our Eagle pride and bring home a win during our very first year!

PTF NO UNIFORM DAY: The May PTF No Uniform Day is this Thursday, May 7th. Elementary students may bring $5 on the morning of the no uniform day and pay at the front door. Intermediate and high school students can turn in their money at the office to Mrs. Turner. In addition, parents may pay ahead of time through PTF’s Square account, which can be accessed here: https://conway-christian-school-ptf.square.site/

On no uniform days, students may wear hats and caps (no hats or caps in the classroom), sportswear including athletic pants or shorts of uniform length, and jeans (no jeggings/leggings). Students may wear non-CCS t-shirts that are appropriate for a Christian school. Students may not wear tank tops. Dress must be modest and neat.

POP TOP TABS DRIVE: CCS is excited to be participating in the pop top tab program to benefit the Ronald McDonald Charities of Arkansas.  Their organization provides a “home away from home” including lodging and meals for families of children facing extended hospital stays in Little Rock. They also host a NICU family room at UAMS as well as a mobile dental unit that provides free dental care to schools around Arkansas.   Let’s pull together to make a difference!     www.rmhcarkansas.org

ELEMENTARY SPIRIT DAY: Get ready for Color Wars Spirit Day on May 14th! Elementary students are encouraged to wear their grade-level color, and we’d love to see them get creative!
