Before Thanksgiving break, our elementary students had a special Operation Christmas Child Shoebox blessing during chapel, sending prayers with the 76 shoebox gifts they packed. These gifts bring joy to children around the world and also the gospel message of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

From school supplies to small toys, every box is packed with love (and a little bit of Cougar spirit!).

The CCS Book Fair is Almost Here!

We’re excited to partner with I:55 Book Fairs this year. Every book has been carefully reviewed by I:55 to ensure high-quality, wholesome content for readers of all ages.

Our goal is to sell $1,500 of merchandise. If we meet that goal, Central Christian will earn 20% back to support our school library.

Books, novelty items, and teacher and student wish lists will be available. If you can't attend in person, but want to shop, visit https://i55bookfairs.com/pages/ks029.

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” — Hebrews 13:8

This month, our elementary students explored how the world around us and the seasons change, but God never changes. He is truth, He proves His faithfulness over and over, and He and keeps His promises.
Influenced by Albert Bierstadt, one of America’s famous landscape artists, students created fall-themed artwork using a variety of media and techniques. Their creativity was inspired by the beauty of God’s creation! 🎨✨

Artists of the Month:
Kindergarten: Dakota Green & Walker Moore
1st Grade: Kahler Ratzloff
2nd Grade: Isabella Austin & Yasiel Cardonne
3rd Grade: Augie Carden & Jason Yoder
4th Grade: Brooklyn Barnhart & McKenzie Graber
5th Grade: Leila Barnett & Braxton Barry

Our 2nd–5th grade students took on STEM Night: Mission Impossible, and they absolutely crushed it! From brain-bending challenges to hands-on experiments, our young agents worked together to solve problems, test ideas, and complete each mission with creativity and grit.

We loved seeing their teamwork and smiles as they discovered that with God (and a little of His science), nothing is impossible! #CCSFamily
