Tomorrow morning our elementary students will take part in our annual Glow Run, and the excitement has been building for weeks! Students have been preparing by running laps and building their stamina, and they are ready to light up the course.
⏰ PLEASE NOTICE: The Glow Run will begin 30 minutes earlier than planned at 10:00 a.m. so that the event can wrap up by 11:00 a.m.
We want to congratulate our Lady Cougars basketball team on their quarterfinal victory as they continue their pursuit of a state championship! They will compete in the state semifinal game early Friday afternoon, and many of our students and teachers will be traveling to cheer them on.
Because of this exciting opportunity to support our team, we will be dismissing school for all K–12 students at 11:00 a.m. to allow time for travel.
These students represented CCS well through their preparation, dedication, and musical excellence. We congratulate them on their outstanding performances!

Some teams are built on talent, but this year's Lady Cougars basketball team is built on something deeper.
If you walk the hallways at CCS, you will see it long before tip-off. You will see teammates encouraging each other and lifting each other up. You will see young women who lead with humility and treat others with kindness. The way they carry themselves reflects something bigger than basketball.
That “something bigger” is their faith in the Lord. It’s a belief that who they are matters more than the scoreboard. It’s choosing to encourage others and to love people the way Christ calls us to love.
That same spirit shows up on the court. They play for each other, celebrate together, and trust one another. Their unity is real, and it’s something special to watch!
We invite you to come see these amazing young women in action today as they take on Wallace County in the state quarterfinal game. Tip-off is at 4:00 p.m. at Kansas Wesleyan University in Salina.
Can’t make it to the game? You can still catch all the action by watching on the NFHS Network (subscription required) or by listening on Ad Astra radio.

Elementary families – If your students have been collecting donations, be sure to turn in the forms and money to the office on Friday morning.
Both our CCS boys and girls basketball teams have qualified for the State Tournament. This is only the second time in school history that both teams have advanced to state in the same season! 🏀🎉 Because many of our students, families, and staff will be supporting them, we felt it was best to move the event so everyone can fully celebrate this special moment.
Our elementary students had a great time celebrating Read Across America Week. From wacky hats to creative crafts and fun-filled storytime, it was a week full of imagination, laughter, and learning.
We loved seeing our readers get lost in the world of Dr. Seuss, one page at a time! 📚Check out some highlights from our celebrations!
🚨CCS will have an early dismissal at 11:30 a.m. for Grades K-12 on Tuesday, March 10.

As they head into postseason play, we are reminded that their strength comes not only from preparation and talent, but from the Lord who guides their steps.
The Lady Cougars closed out the regular season with a commanding 41–11 victory over Pratt Skyline, securing their second consecutive undefeated HOPL championship. With a 21–2 record and a No. 1 ranking in Class 1A Division II, this team has shown determination, discipline, and unity every step of the way.
