Grades 2-7: Come & See!
|
|
Preparing for and moving through ACSI Accreditation filled our days the past weeks. It filled our days, but left a hole that only you can fill. What is that hole? The desire for you to come and see all the wonderful things happening at CBA! Therefore, we would like YOU to ‘come and see’! Come join us for morning assembly. Come and walk the halls with Mrs. Lane and Dr. Johnson – look into classrooms through welcoming windows, see the beautiful work the students are doing, hear the joy and laughter that fills the building each day.
Check your ClassDojo "Messages" for the details pertaining to your child's grade.

CBA Mighty Oak Artist of 2023-24-Lynnlee Buttars!
|
|
The voting is complete and the new “CBA Mighty Oak Artist” of 2023 – 2024 has been declared! Colossians 2:6 -7 reminds us, “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” We desire our students to be rooted and built up in God’s Truth. And we want them eager and able to communicate that in multiple languages and multiple platforms. The annual artist contest encourages students of all ages to draw a Mighty Oak Tree that will represent CBA for the year. The 17 submissions were judged by a panel of 15 CBA Faculty and Staff members.
