FUN RUN
Clarksville Academy kicked off the 2nd Annual Fun Run last week! We saw an awesome first day of sales with 127/191 lower school students participating! We were blown away! We hope that all our students in PreK-12 will participate. Students are eligible for a variety of prizes suitable for all ages! This is a major fundraiser for our school and our goal is a big one–$35,000. Security Director Nick Williamson identified areas of improvement for to our security on campus. We felt this was a great thing for our Fun Run to benefit. Below you will find a list of items that all donations will go toward. Donations can be made through the Marketplace and that link can be shared online! The winning family is also eligible for a prize. We look forward to another great year of the run. Please contact Sally Allen at sallen@clarksvilleacaemy.com if you have questions or comments!

CA has always used the box tops label program to earn extra money for our school. We have been so lucky in the past for all your support for the program. Over the years we have earned thousands of dollars for our school. This year it is even easier! Simply download the Box Tops for Education app from the app store, pick Clarksville Academy as your school and start scanning your receipts! It’s as easy as that! So start scanning!

YearBook
If you have pictures you’d like considered for possible inclusion in the 19-20 yearbook, download the Replay It app and send photos our way. Set up is simple. You can always email your photos to any member of the yearbook staff, but the app saves quite a few steps and makes our staff more efficient.
As always, every student receives a yearbook as part of their tuition and fees. This year, students are able to get personalization on their yearbook cover for a small fee. You can order this for your student(s) at Jostens.com. From their website, search for our school and select yearbook. You should be able to order and pay for personalization there. If you have any questions, please feel free to email ldrake@clarksvilleacademy.com
