During February and March, Knit for a Cause collaborated with Mrs. Kinder to make a knitting-theme pottery project called a yarn bowl. These bowls are great for knitters as your small ball of yarn goes inside the bowl. Then the working tail goes out through the decorative swirl. As knitters continue to knit from their yarn, the ball spins inside the yarn bowl; thus preventing it from rolling all over the house! What a fun way to bring pottery and Mrs. Kinder's expertise into Knit for a Cause! Beautiful work girls!

Our CPS Trojan Code focus for the month of February was attitude. Each classroom recognized students for showing extraordinary positive attitude at our Trojan Code assembly last Friday. 💙
Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Brown, and their students presented at tonight’s Board of Education Spotlight on Central Perk, CIS’s first ever coffee cart!
The students started by preparing coffee for our board members and shared their favorite things about Central Perk! Mrs. Cox shared how her idea for Central Perk became a reality, and Mrs. Brown shared how much the students’ confidence has grown since they started.
Thank you, Team Central Perk!☕️
