Now for the 2022-23 Covenant Cup Winner…

The CCS Covenant Cup winner is determined a bit differently than the quarter winners.  It is not a sum of points accumulated over each quarter that determines the winner, but rather the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th placement that each House has in the quarters as well as the placement in the Fall and Spring House Games.  It is not only important to try to secure some 1st place wins, but equally important is to not place 3rd or 4th in any of the qtrs.

As you can see from the chart above, to win the Covenant Cup a House does not have to win each quarter, but it needs to have the least 3rd and 4th place finishes each quarter. However this year, we had a TIE between House Audacia and House Fides, who both ended the year with 10 points.

The tie breaker is determined by which House has the most over all Core Value points from all 4 quarters.

And therefore with a combined total of 25 more Core Value points over the year, the 2022-23 Covenant Cup Winner is… HOUSE Audacia!

TheAudacia flag will fly and their crest will be framed and hung in the lobby for all of the 2023-24 school year until the next Covenant Cup winner is determined.

Spring Games 2023

On May 12th we held our annual Spring Games! We kicked off the day with each House presenting their prepared House chant!

After the chants the Houses played in a “Blind Volleyball Tournament,” almost all House members rotated through the games! The competition was fierce!

Each House Captain divided their House members into 3 teams. After the chants the teams rotated through the gym, commons, and back field!

For the first round of competition, in the commons, the groups collaborated on a piece of House art.

Pictures of many of the other fun games are below.

Second Annual Student and Faculty Feast

On April 1st our 9th -12th grade students, Upper School Faculty and their spouses came together for a night of feasting, fellowship, and a little axe throwing!

We began the evening with a catered meal and time of fellowship!

Let the axe throwing begin!

Thanks to Great AXEpectations, everyone stayed safe and had lots of fun!! The 2nd Annual CCS Feast was a blast and we can’t wait to do it again next year!

Spirit Week March 2023

The students had such a fun time being creative for Spirit Week. Monday was “2000’s day.” Tuesday was ‘Anything but a backpack and shoes day.” Next was “Wacky Wednesday.” Thursday was “Superheroes and Princesses,” and Friday was “Sports Day.” Navigating the hallways was tricky for some but that made it all the more fun.

The fun ended with everyone enjoying pancakes on Friday morning. SG and our seniors worked so hard to pull of all the fun. It will be a week to remember!
