Support CCS

REMINDER: The school board filing window is open now.

Public education brings communities together, and strong school boards help ensure our schools remain accessible, accountable, and focused on students. If you've ever considered serving your community through school board leadership, now is the time to explore that opportunity.

Join the board as they meet this Wednesday, June 10 at 6pm. They will celebrate multiple State Champions, the CCS Support Staff Member of the Year, and Teacher of the Year. They will also be discussing the upcoming referendum.

The meeting is open to the public and the agenda can be found here: https://bit.ly/4okapXe

You may have noticed we missed a few important observances in May—most notably Teacher Appreciation Week, but also National School Nurse Day and Mother's Day.

We noticed too.

Support CCS is entirely volunteer-led. Many of those volunteers are parents, and many are moms who spend countless hours supporting students, schools, teachers, and our community.

So while our social media was a little quieter, our volunteers were busy doing the work. They were helping organize teacher appreciation events, supporting school staff, volunteering in classrooms, attending school activities, and spending time with their own families—the very people and institutions that inspire our mission.

Would it have been nice to post about Teacher Appreciation Week on time? Absolutely. But Support CCS is about more than social media. It's about showing up.

And sometimes showing up in person means showing up a little less online.

To every teacher, nurse, staff member, parent, and volunteer who helps make our schools strong: thank you. We appreciate you, even when we're a little late saying it.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

Public schools bring together students, families, and educators from many backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. They help teach the values that strengthen both our communities and our democracy: respect, belonging, understanding, and the freedom to be yourself.

At Support CCS, we believe public education is strongest when every student feels seen, valued, and supported. This month, we celebrate the diversity that makes our schools and communities better and reaffirm our commitment to public schools that welcome all learners.

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Public schools play an important role in helping students understand the meaning of service, sacrifice, and citizenship. In our classrooms, students learn the importance of remembering and respecting those who gave their lives protecting the freedoms we enjoy today. We also recognize the many graduates from public schools who go on to serve in our armed forces and communities with courage and dedication.

As we gather with family and friends this weekend, may we take time to reflect, remember, and express gratitude for the fallen heroes whose sacrifices will never be forgotten.

❤️🤍💙

Today we celebrate the Class of 2026 — a group of students who have grown, persevered, achieved, and inspired along the way. 🎓

From classrooms and performances to athletic fields, service projects, friendships, and milestones both big and small, your impact on our schools and community will last far beyond graduation day.

As you take this next step, know that you are prepared for whatever comes next — college, careers, military service, travel, entrepreneurship, or paths still waiting to be discovered. You leave our schools with the knowledge, resilience, and experiences to meet the future with confidence.

Congratulations to all of our seniors! We are proud of everything you’ve accomplished and excited to see where your next chapter leads. Your future is bright, and we can’t wait to watch you continue to make a difference.
