Week of January 25, 2010

Clarksville Academy is a pre-kindergarten through grade twelve, college-preparatory school.

Our mission is to promote academic excellence, moral integrity, and physical and social growth.

Values:  Scholarship-Honor-Character-Respect-Success

Welcome Wednesdays

Welcome Wednesdays are fast approaching!  Every student received a gold form asking for referrals from parents & students.  If you haven’t already, please send this back with your student or e mail Sally Allen at sallen@clarksvilleacademy.com.  Welcome Wednesday (Open House) dates are February 10, 17, and 24. We encourage you to invite anyone you know who has an interest in CA!

CA Varsity Bowling

The Varsity Girls Bowling Team finished the season with an 8-2 record and the honor of District Runner-Up.  Way to go, girls!

The Varsity Boys Bowling Team finished the season with an undefeated record of 10-0 and the honor of District Champions.  Congratulations!

Each team competed in their respective Regional Tournaments.  In addition, Tyler Edlin and Jane Stevens will be competing in the Individual State Bowling Tournament on January 28 in Smyrna.  Good luck!

The 2010 CA Yearbook

If you would like to add an additional four pages of personal photos sewn into your yearbook, you may do so through www.yearbookthis.com.  The cost for the extra pages is $15.  Order your additional pages now through next week.

Haiti Relief Effort

Clarksville Academy’s Key Club has collection jars placed around campus for the Haiti Relief Effort.  All donations will be given to the American Red Cross.

Parent Notice

Please do not park in the lower lot by the gym or on the hill.  These spots are assigned student parking.  Also, for safety reasons, no student is to be picked up anywhere but out front during regular pick-up times.  The cars in the lower lot are creating a distracting and safety hazard.  Your cooperation is appreciated.

Ronald McDonald House

The CA Key Club continuously collects and donates laundry supplies and pop-tops to the Nashville Ronald McDonald House.  Please pick up an extra item on your next shopping trip for an excellent cause.

PowerSchool

Parents may access grades at any time using the Parent Portal at the bottom corner of the CA web-site’s Home page.  If you have misplaced your access codes please call the office.  Also, the final grades now showing for Quarter 1 and 2 in Power School have had the Honors or AP points added if applicable.  New report cards will be mailed for students carrying an incomplete once the grade has been finalized.
