Last Friday marked the final day of school for the❤️🖤🤍 CFS Class of 2026 ❤️🖤🤍
Our seniors spent the day celebrating together with Senior Chapel and one of our most loved traditions — Senior Walk. As they walked through the halls one last time, students from Preschool through High School lined the hallways cheering them on with bubbles, signs, bells, and so much excitement.

It was a special day filled with memories, laughter, hugs, and celebration as we honored this incredible group of seniors and the impact they have made on our school community. We are so proud of each of them and can’t wait to see where God leads them next. 🎓✨
