The Spring House Games (aka Upper School field day) are an exciting display of House and School Spirit.  The students came ready to compete and have fun.

The morning started with each House gathering in their “home room” to prepare for a big day of fun and competition by decorating themselves in House specific colored face paint, streamers, pompoms, etc.

Split into teams, the students then went to their designated games and rotated throughout the morning.

Below are pictures from the games/challenges from the rest of the morning.

CCS Houses know how to have fun in the Spring!

What a fun way to end the school year with a Lake Day hosted by House Fides at the home of one of their advisors, Dr. Williamsen. The students enjoyed kayaking, paddle boarding, sunbathing and spikeball.

Survival of the strongest on the paddleboards…

Taking a break from the water to play some spikeball…

So thankful for the adult chaperones who came out to enjoy time with our students and fellowship with each other.

Constantia hosted a fun Escape Room event for all upper school. Students were placed in groups of 4-6 students per group and had to put team work and problem solving skills to the test to see who could escape their room the fastest.

Sapientia hosted an all upper school Park Day event at Veteran’s Park.

Students enjoyed basketball, volleyball and kickball.

The annual Powder Puff game was loads of fun. The girls showed great sportsmanship in the midst of some impressive athleticism on both sides. Lots of laughter, encouragement, hugs, and fun was had by both teams, but in the end, the Purple team pulled out the victory.

Student Government hosted their spring Pancake Breakfast.

The student leaders did a great job in the kitchen and lots of CCS families had their tummies filled up and fueled up to start their day off great!

As an alternate field trip for the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades, CCS hosted two Science Integration Days! The focus was on trees and the history, science, and art of paper making.

The 7th graders worked together to form, build and decorate paper mache trees. They began with a theme and a sketch – basically a blueprint. Then they used chicken wire and various other items to build their tree forms. They added paper mache and then painted and decorated them.

The finished trees were unique, creative, and colorful works of art!

The 8th and 9th graders followed the same process to create masks.

In some down time the students and teachers enjoyed playing some games together.

A big thank you to Mrs. Quillen, Mrs. Hudson, Miss Leland, Mrs. Bowling, Mrs. Trapp, and Mrs. Shuping for all their hard work during these fun science integration days!

CCS students were super creative with Spirit Week this past spring.

Day 1 was “Bring anything BUT a backpack day.”

Day 2 was “International Day“

Day 3 was “Dress Like a Teacher Day”

Day 4 was “Class Color Day” – each class was assigned a different color to wear. I don’t have pictures of all the classes but this pic of the 7th grades is a good example!

Day 5 was “PJ and Stuffed Animal Day“

CCS Warriors love to show their SPIRIT!!
