Below are the links to sign up for spring sports with designated deadlines. Students will NOT be able to participate in the sport if the Sign Up Deadline is missed! For logistical purposes, we ask that you sign up your child if they are serious about playing sports. Please feel free to reach out to the coaches if you have any questions at [email protected].

The Virtues in Practice program is designed for each child to deeply study and practice a particular Christian virtue and recognize his or her ability to live in holiness like the saints in heaven. Over the past month, all of our students have grown closer to God and opened their hearts to Him through the theological virtue of PATIENCE...which is defined as waiting or enduring without complaint. They have also studied the lives of Saint Monica, Saint Issac Jogues, and Saint Rita of Cascia, and our hope is that they continue to look to the saints as role models of patience. Thank you to our parents for their dedication to being the primary educators of faith in the life of their children and for their continued support and trust in the mission and vision of our school.

CCS Parents are invited to a fun-filled night on Thursday, February 6th (6-9pm) at the Lafayette Pickleball Club. Snag a babysitter and make plans to attend!

We take this opportunity to recognize (3) Named Endowment grants recently awarded by the Cathedral-Carmel Foundation.

Named Endowments are a reliable source of perpetual income creating a lasting legacy. Currently, (10) named endowment funds have been created through the foundation to annually award students, teachers, and the school grants and scholarships to assist with either Tuition Assistance, Teacher Resources, or Campus Improvements.

The Robyn & Phil Boudreaux Endowment Fund, (who are current CCS Grandparents) was established over (4) years ago because they wanted to give back to Catholic education in a meaningful way. With many of their family members being educators, they chose to focus on teacher resources and loved the idea of providing a CCS teacher with an annual grant to assist with purchasing materials needed to further instruction and offer students interactive and effective ways of learning. Mrs. Meghan Trahan, one of the PreK teachers, is the recipient this year and plans to use the Robyn & Phil Boudreaux grant to purchase a range of science enrichment materials designed for young learners, including weather observation tools, life cycle kits, and child-friendly models of the human body.

CCS is always looking to improve and beautify the aging facilities on campus. Both the Dr. & Mrs. Elmo Laborde Endowment Fund and the Monica & Tony Carroll Family Endowment Fund were created a few years ago and has proudly awarded the school over $18,000 in grants to assist with campus improvements.

The Amazing Shake is the culminating event of the year for our new House System. All middle school(5th-8th Grades) will engage in a series of competitions aimed at assessing manners, discipline, respect, and communication skills that have been emphasized and taught through our House System.

Our first competition, "WORK THE ROOM" will be held on Friday, January 24th. WE NEED YOUR HELP...We are in search of 160 adults (18 +) to interact with students in the “Work the Room” round. We are looking for CCS alums, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, family friends, professional colleagues/friends! Students mingle with adults as if they were at a business gathering. They must meet as many adults as they can and engage with them. The adults score students on eye contact, handshakes, and poise at the event. Students have only 30 minutes to cover the entire room. Prior to ending each conversation, the student should ask the adult to score their card. Please use the links below to learn how you can help us make this inaugural event a SUCCESS! ***The DEADLINE to signup up is Friday, January 17th!

If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Hallea Ryan at [email protected] or Mrs. Kate Mottram at [email protected].
