Students are expected to be present in their classrooms and ready to begin class work prior to the late bell.

On the third occasion (fourth for Middle School) that a student has an unexcused first-period tardy in a quarter, a detention will be issued to the student by the first–period teacher. For each subsequent unexcused first period tardy in the quarter, another detention will be issued. When a student has received four detentions for tardiness in a quarter, then he or she may receive an in-school suspension for a duration determined by the administration.”

HIGH SCHOOL AND MIDDLE SCHOOL

Student ambassadors, the sign-up Notebook for evening events is at the front desk. Please look through it and sign up to greet at one event this quarter if you are able. We have plays going on 2 nights this week, for example. See Mrs. Stephens or Mrs. Goodwin if you have any questions and thank you for your service.

Attention CPA students, we are collecting items to put together birthday bags for kids who are in foster care.  There are two boxes – one in the cafeteria and one in the forum – each box has a list of objects that can be donated.  We need everything from toys, to cake mix, candles, blankets, etc. Let’s help and give these kids the best birthday we can as a CPA family.  Thank you for all your donations.  

Archery and Bowyery will meet after school today.   

All students going to the field during lyceum must exit and enter through the ramada only not through the forum doors!

Please note there has been a change in our dress code. Khaki walking shorts with white or solid-colored dark socks are a uniform option for students for the entire year.

New members- yearbook is open for high school and 8th grade students. Meetings are once or twice a week, and most work can be completed at home. Come check it out! See Mrs. Ferrell if you have questions.
