Parents and guests should RSVP using the card sent home last week. Meals are $6.50 per guest and we ask that all RSVPs be received by November 17. We hope you will join us!
**Please note that on Nov 23 there will be no breakfast or snack served due to preparations for Thanksgiving Dinner.

We will host our annual Veteran’s Day Program on Tuesday, November 10, at 1:30 PM on Procter Court in the main gym. This moving program will feature music by our lower school students as well as our intermediate and upper school concert choirs. Please join us for this special program.
Mr & Miss CA
Congratulations to Hunter Galbraith & Evelyn Turner for being named Mr. & Miss. CA. This honor is bestowed upon the male and female student chosen by faculty who display the characteristics of someone who honors the Cougar tradition. Students are polite, courteous, a friend to all ages and someone who has pride for all that CA stands for. Congratulations to these two deserving students for this honor!

W encourage you to caption your photo or to write a sentence or two with the event name, students pictured in the photo and the date it was taken. We do not guarantee that every photo will be used, but we look forward to seeing your pictures.

We encourage everyone with an apple device to download the iCougar app today.

A new update was released in January. We are currently investigating the Android market and hope to have it available there soon.

Clarksville Academy now offers a Cougar Bucks Account option to better assist children with their lunch needs! This convenient option gives families the opportunity to deposit money into an account and this money can be withdrawn for miscellaneous items that are available at the express window or the hot lunch window. Payments can now be made via the new online marketplace!
