April Newsletter

Dear Crossroads Families,

As we turn the corner into April, our focus shifts toward celebration and transition. This month, we are looking past the pastel eggs and spring treats to focus on something far more rewarding: the incredible growth and renewal happening in our students every day.

Here is a summary of what’s happening on campus as we head into the final weeks of the school year.

April Dates & Reminders

• April 6th: NO SCHOOL.

• April 23rd: 6th – 8th Grade Award Ceremony.

• April 27th – 30th: Noon Dismissal Week.

Six Weeks to Excellence

The final six weeks of the school year are a vital, high-leverage period for our students. Rather than "winding down," our educators are leveraging these weeks for deep reflection, consolidation, and the introduction of final concepts. This transition from daily lessons to lasting knowledge is what strengthens your child’s academic foundation. We are committed to working hard right up until the final bell!

Teacher Appreciation Week (May 4th – 8th)

It’s almost time to honor the incredible dedication of our teachers! We encourage our CCS families to join the celebration. Whether it’s a surprise coffee, a thoughtful card, or a small gift of encouragement, these "small wins" mean the world to our staff as we finish the school year strong.

The Final Stretch: Milestone Events

Please take note of these important dates to ensure your student is prepared for the finish line:

• Saturday, May 2nd: Senior Night.

• Thursday, May 14th: Last Day of School.

• Thursday, May 14th @ 3:00 PM: CRITICAL DEADLINE. All work must be submitted by this time for final grading and graduation eligibility.

• Saturday, May 16th: Graduation Ceremony.

Thank you for your continued partnership as we help our students finish this year with excellence!

We hope your Christmas break provided a wonderful time of rest and celebration. As we start the second half of the 2025-2026 school year, our focus remains on 'nurturing the whole child.'
