🏐 HOPL RUNNER-UP! 🏐
Congratulations to our middle school volleyball team on earning Runner-Up at the HOPL Championship!
The girls battled hard, earning a win over Stafford before falling to Cunningham in the championship match.
We are so proud of the grit, determination, and heart these girls showed on the court! They left it all out there, and their hard work paid off.
Girls, you should be proud of how far you have come and the effort you have given this season. We are thankful for the opportunity to coach you!
Way to go, Cougars! We are proud of you! 💚

Here’s a reminder that this Thursday is an early release day for K–12 students due to parent-teacher conferences this week, and there will be no child care, no preschool/pre-K, and no K–12 classes on Friday.
We are excited to announce that Coach David Johnston will be stepping into the role of head coach for middle school girls basketball this upcoming season. Coach Johnston has previously served as an assistant coach, and we are thankful for his willingness to take on this leadership role.
Charissa Sanders will be joining him as assistant coach this year. She and her family recently moved to the Hutchinson area, and her daughter is a CCS student. Charissa brings years of coaching experience at the elementary, middle school, and high school levels, along with experience playing college basketball.
We look forward to having both coaches investing in our girls this season!

Our high school volleyball team won the Regional Championship and is on its way to Sub-State. Way to go, Lady Cougars!
Our elementary students have been busy learning, exploring, experimenting, and making memories all month long. From STEM adventures to community visitors, October has been packed with exciting opportunities!
🚀 5th Grade | Our fifth graders have been exploring the world of STEM at STARBASE! Students learned by doing chemistry experiments, CAD training, and robot coding. They also created and launched rockets and had an up-close look during a tour of a Black Hawk helicopter. What an incredible place to explore science, technology, engineering, and more!
🎈 4th Grade | Fourth grade students have been investigating kinetic energy with balloon rockets. Along the way, they experienced successes, a few failures, and plenty of opportunities to learn. They’re already thinking about what adjustments they can make next time, which is what science is all about: testing ideas, learning from results, and trying again!
🔬 3rd Grade | Our third graders have been learning about God's unique design for each of us through their study of fingerprints. They also used fun foods to build models of animal cells. This facilitated students delving into the parts of a cell and learning how each part plays an important role.
🎃 Grades K–2 | These students enjoyed their annual visit to P&M Pumpkin Ranch. It was a wonderful time to be outdoors, explore the season, and make fall memories together.
📚 1st Grade | Football players and a few art students read with our first graders. What a great way to encourage a love of reading and build connections throughout our school!
🚒 Pre-K–3rd Grade | We extend a big thank-you to the Hutchinson Fire Department for visiting our students. This year’s presentation focused on safe charging, which taught students how to help prevent fires by charging their technology safely. Students also had the chance to learn about the fire trucks, interact with firefighters, and ask questions. We love opportunities that help our students learn practical skills that can keep them safe!

Spirit week is always so much fun! Our students showed their creativity and joy all week with cozy outfits on PJ Day, big dreams on Wanna-Be Day, festive looks on Christmas Day, matching pairs on Dynamic Duo Day, and showing off their wildest Cougar pride on Cougar Crazy Day. 🐾💙💚

Come join us as we celebrate the senior members of our Cougar football team!
These young men have given countless hours to the game, their teammates, and Central Christian School. Senior Night is our opportunity to recognize their commitment and dedication.
After the game, we’ll take a moment to honor our seniors and the families who have supported them throughout their football careers. Then it’s time to turn up the Cougar spirit and cheer our boys on under the lights! 🐾🏈
We’d love to have you in the stands! Bring your family, bring a friend, and help us make Senior Night great!
What a season for our middle school Cougars! We are so proud of them.
🏐 Middle School Volleyball: "Our girls have grown in skill, confidence, teamwork, and encouragement. They’ve worked hard, supported one another, overcome challenges, and continued to improve each week. As they head into the HOPL Tournament, we’re excited to see them put that growth into action. Let’s play hard, lift each other up, and enjoy every moment!"– Molly Miller, Head Coach
🏈 Middle School Football: "This team’s progress started long before the season began with early morning workouts in April and May to prepare for the months ahead. Their energy and effort have been incredible, and we’re proud of the foundation they’re building as they look ahead to varsity football!" – AJ Caldwell, Head Coach
🏃 Middle School Cross Country: "Through their first four meets, our boys have learned to persevere, push themselves, and keep working toward their goals. Every runner has improved throughout the season, and we can’t wait to see what they accomplish in their final meet!" – Kaylee Moore, Head Coach

CCS families, we encourage you to invite your pastors and their families to join us for a night of football and fellowship!
Pastors pour so much of themselves into the lives of others. They pray with us, teach us God’s Word, walk with us through difficult seasons, celebrate with us in joyful ones, and faithfully serve the local church. Their work reaches far beyond the walls of a church building. They serve not only the families of CCS, but the Kingdom of God.
As we celebrate Pastor Appreciation Night,
🏈 Bring your pastor.
💚 Bring their family.
🤝 Enjoy some fellowship together.
🎟️ Pastors and their families receive FREE admission to the game!

You don’t have to have all the answers. Just invite them to come, meet our people, and experience CCS for themselves. Sometimes a simple invitation is the first step in a family finding the right school for their children.
