Water Day at CCA

Elementary students in grades 1-5 celebrated reaching and exceeding their reading challenge of 20,000 Accelerated Reading points. Students were rewarded with a beach-themed dress-up day as well as "water day" activities on the west field. Classes competed against each other by grade level to complete the sponge and cup relays. The goal was to transfer water from the 5 gallon bucket by sponge or cup to the gallon jug a few yards away. Classes were also treated to cupcakes with gummy fish and the top readers, as well as the most improved were recognized from each class. The highlight was the trophy given to one student in each grade level for being the highest point achiever.
The winners were:
1st grade: Riley Ouellette, 97.6 pts.
2nd grade: Necah Marson, 114.9 pts.

Flying High at CCA - Coast Guard Helicopter

Monday afternoon from CCA dad, Lieutenant Matt Laughlin, along with two of his coworkers, Lieutenant Commander Chris Hulser and AET Ray Rivera Rodriguez. Students and teachers alike were in awe as the crew of the HH-65 Dolphin circled and then landed their helicopter, ordinarily used to perform search and rescue operations, on our football field. Once the helicopter landed, each student went aboard and looked inside. Through a question and answer session with the Coast Guard members, the elementary kids learned about the helicopter and how it performs rescues, how it flies, and what it carries. They also learned about Coast Guard procedures and operations, as well as water safety tips that are especially important for living in South Florida. This was a great opportunity for the students, as they learned something new about their community service personnel in a very unique way. To see all the pictures click here.








Fifth Grade Class Nails Their Sins to the Cross

How did our fifth grade students celebrate the week leading to Easter Sunday? For some years now, it has become a CCA tradition for fifth graders to "nail their sins to the cross", a ceremony that reaches more into a young person's heart than a classroom lesson would do. On Wednesday, April 8, the 5th Grade Class, met Pastor Bob Coy in the Sanctuary hallway and carried a wooden cross out to the baseball field, where he taught them the importance of what they were about to do.
