Dear CSAMS Families,
CSAMS families are the BEST! Thanks to your generous support and your students’ dedication and creativity, we raised enough money at our Holiday Bazaar to purchase all the books needed for this winter’s Battle of the Books.
According to the America’s Battle of the Books website, “America’s Battle of the Books is a reading program for students in upper elementary school through high school. Students read books and come together, usually in groups, to demonstrate their abilities and test their knowledge of the books they have read.”
Our resident expert, Mr. Ellis, competed in Battle of the Books when he was in middle school and has shared the positive impact the experience had on him as a reader—both during his middle school years and beyond. We are so fortunate that he brought this exciting idea to our school.
Later this week, we will officially kick off CSAMS’ Battle of the Books! Working with their advisory teams, students will have from now until the end of Term 2 to read as many books from the list as possible. We will “battle” it out in March during National Reading Month.
We are truly looking forward to embarking on this exciting journey with our students. Thank you again for your continued support in making this opportunity possible for our school.
In partnership with you,
Dina M Barnaby

Looking to give back to those who give so much to our students? Parent Council could use your help to "Stock the Shelves" in the staff lunch areas at our three campuses! Our CSA District staff work some long hours to be the best they can be for our children. Let's show them how much we appreciate them. Click below to donate financially to the "Stock the Shelves" cause and Parent Council will purchase the goods (Staff have a wishlist that Parent Council work off of).
Let's rally together to show our teachers some love!
We need a lot of volunteers at our CSAMS and CSPA home games! The expectation is that all basketball players and all cheerleaders are represented by a volunteer during the season. Volunteers do not need to be parents. Feel free to recruit friends, grandparents or other family members, ESPECIALLY STUDENTS WHO NEED SERVICE HOURS.
-Typically all positions allow you to watch the game while working
-Training is provided when necessary
-Free admission and discounted concession food for volunteers

Our CSA District Libraries are run by our devoted parent volunteers and it's a volunteer opportunity that is wonderful for interacting with our students. We are currently in need of volunteers so that all of our library class times are covered. Training is provided. We still need volunteers at CSAMS on Friday from 9:00am - 12:30pm.
