A Message From Mr. Matthew Stewart, CSPA & CSAMS Principal

Dear Sentinel Families,

The Spring temperatures that we are experiencing are symbolic for our upcoming transitions and fresh opportunities.  

Yesterday, our Sentinel athletes began their Spring seasons with tryouts for Baseball, Track & Field, and Girls Soccer. Our co-ed Golf team holds tryouts today. Congratulations to all of our Sentinel athletes and their families for the successes achieved, and the growth and camaraderie they displayed during the Winter season. Best of luck to all of our Spring athletes and coaches!

Both the end of Quarter 3 and SAT/PSAT testing are on the horizon for our High School students. Quarter 3 concludes on Friday, March 27. The College Board suite of SAT/PSAT testing takes place on Tuesday, April 14. More information about other Sentinel testing scenarios is coming soon.  

Finally, we continue to encourage our Seniors over the next ten weeks before their last day of school on Friday, May 22. Both Extended Essay presentations and Senior Information Night are “in the books,” so to speak. I am fully optimistic that our highly capable Sentinels students will finish their Senior year strong!

In partnership with you,
Matthew Stewart

CSPA Commitment to Excellence Includes Community Service


CSPA High School students are required to perform 50 hours of community service/volunteerism as a graduation requirement. Community service credit will be given for voluntary activities that help others or are beneficial to the community. Students earn credit for hours spent participating in the actual activity, not for meeting and planning time. Students are responsible for getting a Community Service Sponsor Sheet signed and dated for each activity.

Life After CSPA: Preparing for College & Career


Preparation is embedded in the Charyl Stockwell Preparatory Academy name. That preparation is grounded in the belief that people who are capable, caring, and self- directed learners will be successful in life no matter what they choose to do after they leave High School. Learning is a lifelong pursuit and we are committed to providing students with the skills they need for work and life. 

We have created a permanent link to post-secondary resources that will appear at the bottom of this and all CSPA newsletters. Additionally, we have included a link for active scholarship opportunities. Visit these resources often to find helpful links and opportunities for all students, regardless of their post-CSPA plans.
