Congratulations to everyone at CAPCS for making this year’s Pennies for Patients campaign a huge success. Every single CAPCS campus exceeded its goals and we raised $4,264.11 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. That was well over three times last year’s total of $1,227.00. Thanks to everyone who contributed and to those who worked very hard in organizing and managing this effort. CAPCS has a legacy of generosity when it comes to community service activities and we are proud to have continued that legacy and pushed it forward. It is truly one of our areas of excellence. |

Our Vision:
The vision of Community Academy Public Charter School is to raise children to become competent, responsible adults who actively pursue lifelong learning opportunities.
| CAPCS Founder Kent Amos reads the Halloween tale The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by Linda Williams to a group of early childhood students. The delighted children wiggled, clapped their hands and shook their bodies just like the characters in the book. Who do you suppose enjoyed it more? |
