Seniors Reflect on Faith, Growth & the Future

As part of Mr. Frankio's Faith, Logic & Reason Bible class, our seniors completed their Capstone Project, a meaningful opportunity to reflect on their faith journey, high school experience and future plans.

Students examined worldview through books and films, reflected on the people and moments that have shaped them and considered what comes next as they prepare for college, church involvement and life beyond CCS. They then shared their stories through creative presentations with their classmates.

One of the greatest blessings of this project is seeing students recognize God's faithfulness throughout their lives and consider how He may continue to use them in the years ahead.

We are proud of the thoughtfulness, honesty and faith demonstrated by the Class of 2026 as they look back with gratitude and forward with purpose.

Teacher & Staff End-of-Year Celebration

We wrapped up another incredible school year with a special lunch honoring our amazing CCS teachers and staff! As we celebrated the conclusion of the 2025–2026 school year, we took time to reflect on God's faithfulness throughout a year filled with growth, achievement and countless memories.
