With school canceled on Wednesday, December 10, the Book Fair will not be open that day.
Instead, we will open for after-school sales beginning tomorrow from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m.!
Stop by the library to browse a great selection of books and support CCS. We’d love to see you there!

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.

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
