CSP Attendance Policy Link

Parents - if your child will be absent please call 487-2000 and leave details on our attendance line. Students who are chronically absent and exceed 3 absences (6 Kinder half days) in a semester, excused or unexcused, risk not successfully completing the semester. Consistent attendance at CSP should be a top priority since we are a part-time program

MONTHLY CHARACTER 

ALL YEAR – Courage & Kindness
JANUARY - Forgiveness & Humility
FEBRUARY – Perseverance & Honesty

 Teachers will note which character strengths were discussed each week so you may continue those conversations at home. CSP classes will also implement Peer Mentoring, i.e. pairing older and younger classes to engage in character discussions and activities together. Mentoring across grade levels is a part of the Board initiative for enriching TCA’s Character Education program.
CSP CURRICULUM
