Healthy smiles are happening at CAP! 🦷💙💛

The Ronald McDonald Care Mobile Dental Program is back on campus, providing FREE dental care to our K–12 students right here at school.

We’re so grateful for partners who help make access to important health services easier for our students and families. Thank you, Ronald McDonald House Philadelphia, for caring for our CAP Bruins!

Another great week at CAP! 💙💛🐻

Our Bruins kept busy both in and out of the classroom. Sports officially got underway, clubs kicked off, and students were engaged in hands-on projects, activities, and learning experiences throughout the week. We also wrapped up a very successful Book Fair!

So many moments, so many ways to learn, connect, and be part of the CAP community.

♻️ Learning, creating, and giving old materials new life!

As part of their unit on conserving natural resources, Mrs. Gallagher’s Environmental Science class is repurposing plastic bags and old paper to create paper-mâché pumpkins! 🎃

These student-made creations will be used to decorate this year’s Haunted Hangout — turning sustainability into something fun and spooky! 👻

Today, Mr. Watson’s M24 class wrapped up their class election campaign with candidates taking the stage to deliver their presidential speeches! 🗣️

Students created advertisements, prepared their campaigns, and practiced their speeches before making their case to their classmates. Now, it’s time to vote! 🗳️

At CAP, our mission goes beyond the classroom — education and life experiences help prepare our students to lead, communicate, and participate in their communities.

We’ll find out who will serve as M24’s Class President on Monday! 🐻💙💛
