Hello Folks, Some schools in our area will be running a 2 hour delay this morning. They have received an email bomb threat from out of the area that appears to be a hoax. However even with the high likelihood that this is a hoax they are taking measures necessary to ensure a safe environment for the students. CPCS has not received this email and we will be starting school on time. If something changes we will adjust and implement our safety protocols to ensure the safety of staff and students. Jim

The CPCS Book Fair kicks off tomorrow morning at 8:30AM! eWallets can be set up online or cash/check are also accepted. We look forward to seeing you there!

Dear CPCS Community- In light of recent events, we are reaching out to let you know that we have a previously scheduled lockdown that will be taking place tomorrow, 3/27. We strive to provide a safe learning environment for all students. This drill is part of our required safety plan. We want to be sure we are preparing our staff and students to be prepared to respond to emergency situations. We typically do not message out about our required safety drills but wanted to be sensitive to the recent events in our country. Should you have any questions or concerns, feel free to give me a call. Jennifer McKinley
