CCS-Leland Boosterthon Fun! CCS-Leland ended November with an exciting Boosterthon fundraiser! This year, the students raised money for gym enhancements, earning fun prizes and participating in special events along the way. Each day featured a pep rally where students learned more about health, fitness, leadership, and the character traits that we value at CCS-America. After a lot of enthusiasm and hard work, the Boosterthon wrapped up with the much-anticipated Fun Run for elementary students and Color Run for our middle schoolers. Both events were packed with action, excitement, and joy. The Booster Team kept the energy high with themed laps, dances, and popular music that kept our students moving. Parents and families came out to watch, cheer on their students, and even join in on the fun. CCS-Leland community, thank you for another wonderful year of participation and school spirit! The commitment and dedication of our school family is truly special. See pictures from this fun day below: **************
Students of the Month: Self-Control CCS-America students are celebrated each month for exemplifying a specific character trait from our School Pledge. This is a value that they not only recite daily, but practice in their everyday lives. November’s character trait was Self-Control. Students who demonstrate self-control choose to do what is right, even when it isn’t the easiest option or the one they prefer. Self-control is seen in the Pledge as “I pledge to be virtuous in all my deeds.” Students bring these words to life by being calm and respectful in class, practicing good manners, and making thoughtful decisions. Congratulations to all of the students who demonstrated outstanding self-control! Check them out using the links below: CCS-Whiteville pictures will be uploaded to Facebook soon! ************* |
Celebrating Our HeroesEvery year, CCS-America campuses hold their annual Veterans Day programs. Family members, veterans, and community members are invited to join each campus for a celebration dedicated to those who keep our country safe and protect our freedom.This year, under the guidance of their dedicated music teachers, students performed patriotic songs in honor of our veterans and the sacrifices they have made. Students worked hard and practiced diligently to make their performances the best they could be.Veterans, thank you for all you have done for us and for the United States of America. It was an honor to welcome you to our campuses and express our gratitude through these performances.Check out pictures from each campus below:
Happy 250th Birthday to the Marines!Founded on November 10, 1775, the United States Marine Corps has spent the last 250 years serving our country with honor and bravery. Marines have fought from the shores of Tripoli to the valleys of Afghanistan- always the most-ready when the nation is least-ready.Marines always answer the call of the Nation. On any given day, nearly 38,000 Marines are forward deployed around the globe, enabling them to be the first on scene, first to help, first to contain a brewing crisis, and if required to do so, first to fight anywhere for as long as it takes. Marines stand always ready.Those who have worn the uniform continue to serve through the way they live their lives, leading the way in their communities and embodying the spirit of “Once a Marine, always a Marine.” At CCS-America, we are lucky to have multiple former Marines on our staff and serving at our schools. They bring to our campuses their core values of honor, courage, and commitment, living out their motto Semper Fidelis—‘Always Faithful.’The Roger Bacon Academy:Mr. Steve Smith, served from 1979-2006, retired as a Sergeant MajorMs. Katie Boyce, served from 2007-2011, CorporalCCS-LelandMr. Robert Wingett, served from 1981-2002, retired as a Master SergeantMr. Joe Flores, served from 2011-2019, SergeantMs. Stephanie Doyle, served from 2007-2010, Lance CorporalCCS-WhitevilleMr. Christopher Mitchell, served from 1994-2000, CorporalHappy Birthday, Marines!

What is Ready Position?At CCS-America, we believe that strong learning begins with strong habits. One of these important habits is ‘ready position’, a posture that prepares students for instruction and helps them stay focused in the classroom.To achieve ready position, students sit facing forward with their chairs scooted under their desks and their feet flat on the floor. They fold their hands on their desks, keep their heads up, and direct their eyes towards the board, awaiting instruction. This position signals that they are prepared to listen, learn, and fully engage with the lesson.By practicing ready position every day, students build positive habits that they will carry with them beyond their time at CCS-America.*************
