Middle School Principal’s Letter
Thank you for reading this week’s News and Views. It is a short week due to the Eid Al Fitr holiday. We wish you all a safe and restful break.
When we return from break, only 36 school days remain. As usual, there will be a lot to get done in that short period of time. We will administer our Spring MAP testing beginning on Tuesday, April 16th, with Language Usage, followed by Math on April 17th, and ending with Reading on April 19th.
We are asking for your support by making sure your child gets enough sleep and has something nutritious to eat before coming to school on the morning of the test. If their snacks are heavy in sugar, they will crash at some point during the test. All tests will be done first thing in the morning during advisory.
Great to see our students in physical education class enjoying the project adventure unit again.
Life Lesson# 2: Never let rejection lead to self-rejection.
A person who has experienced rejection fears rejection, and a person who fears rejection tends to push or run away before they can be rejected. In their subconscious mind, they have avoided rejection. In reality, they’ve been rejected again this time by themselves.
Thank you for your continous support of the middle school.
In Partnership,
Courtney Bailey
The Middle School Principal

CAC Varsity Baseball, Game 4 Victory Summary
This past Saturday afternoon, the CAC Boys clinched a solid 9-3 win against the Scrubs (our community team opponent) in a three-inning game. The CAC Boys’ record is 4 wins and 0 losses. Key performances included:
• Max, Kaden, Wyatt, and Gian each getting two hits.
• Nick hitting a memorable three-run homer.
• Shivam driving in two runs with a single.
On defense, Wyatt made a standout bare-handed throw for an out, and Max picked off a runner at first. Kaden led from the mound as the winning pitcher, anchoring the team’s victory.
Congrats to the CAC Boys on a great game! Let’s keep up the momentum.

All Pro Dad – April Meeting
Hello everyone! The next CAC All Pro Dad meeting is scheduled for 18 April.
All Pro Dad is a monthly gathering where dads get to intentionally engage with their kids! This of course is not just limited to dads, but all children must be accompanied by an adult.
There will be fun activities and a character-based curriculum that helps parents start meaningful conversations with their kids.
The next meeting is scheduled for 18 April at 7:00 am and it would be great to see you there.
April’s topic is Forgiveness. To forgive means to let it go after somebody else has hurt you. Forgiveness isn’t forgetting or letting the person off the hook with no consequence. It is deciding you’re done being bitter about what happened.
If you would like to come, please RSVP here! https://allprodadchapters.com/chapters/13407
