Our new "Partners in Prayer" group will meet on Wednesday morning this week.  Plan to stay after drop-off for a short time of coffee and prayer in the cafe.  This group will meet monthly to pray for specific needs at CDA.  I want to encourage everyone to stay for this important time.  I know you will enjoy it.  Thank you all for your prayerful support.

In Christ,

Scott Davis

The team here in Carrollton has been very busy getting everything ready for you.  Classrooms and curriculum are being prepared and teachers are receiving training.   Remember that orientations are on the 13th and 14th as described in the last couple of blogs.  Meet the teacher is on the 15th from 1:00 - 3:00pm.  Orientations are for parents only.  Please bring your students on Friday next week and they can get to know their new teacher.  If you have any questions about orientations, be sure to call our office.  Lastly, volleyball begins practice this coming week.  If you still want to play, be sure to register or e-mail Coach Hooper at shooper@coramdeoacademy.org.  Electives are still open as well.  Be sure to register for electives before school begins so we can be prepared with appropriate equipment and supplies. 

Have a great weekend and we will see you next week.

In Christ,

Scott Davis

You may now view the supply lists for all grade levels at the following link.  http://www.coramdeoacademy.org/content/carrollton/index.php  Be sure and click through to read important news regarding electives, new teachers and more.

We have just received our new homework / activity planners for the 2008-2009 school year.  This year, these planners have a nice cover with the CDA logo.  These books are an excellent way for logic level students to keep up with assignments and special instructions.  We are selling the books for $6.00 this year just to cover the cost.  We have them at the front desk now or you can purchase them at orientation or later until they are gone.  For now, we want to make them available to logic level students (grades 5-8).  We should have enough to make them available to others after the start of school.

Thank you,

Scott Davis
