High School Textbook Returns Deadline is May 26

We are so excited to celebrate the conclusion of another great year at CAL! Thank you for allowing us to partner with you in educating and loving your children. It is time to wrap up courses and that means final exams and the return of textbooks.

All the information you need will be coming by email from the Media Center beginning May 2. The emails will show all library books, fines (incurred during the year for copies, late books, lost books, etc.), textbooks and Chromebooks currently checked out to you. You are expected to return the materials that match the barcodes in the email.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us collect all resources in a timely and smooth manner. Any item checked out to you which is not turned into the Media Center by May 26, will incur a non-refundable fee equaling the sum of the items not returned and fines not paid, even if the items are returned later. This fee will appear on FACTS and will trigger grades and transcripts to be held until the balance is paid.

Textbooks are always collected during the week of finals. Before you take each final in May, you should go to the Media Center to check in the textbook for the final you are about to take. You will then take the textbook to the classroom where it will be stored over the summer.

Please carefully review the following guidelines for textbook return:

1. Damaged Textbook: If your textbook is damaged in any way, (ripped pages, water damage, etc.) your FACTS account will be charged the replacement value of the textbook. Do not order a replacement book through Amazon. We have special rates and need to make sure the correct edition will be purchased.

2. Lost Textbooks: You MUST return the textbook that was assigned to you at the beginning of the year. There is a barcode on the cover of the book that should match the barcode in the emails you receive. If your textbook is lost or has the wrong barcode, you will be billed through FACTS, triggering a hold on your grades and transcript. You must either return the book by May 26, or pay the replacement value to release the hold.

3. Clean:  Please remove all papers and book covers prior to the turn-in date.

Christian Academy’s “In The Game Leadership Academy” Attends Leadership Louisville’s 100 Wise Women Event

Christian Academy’s “In The Game Girls Leadership Academy” started this year to help guide our girls to explore their God-given talents, embrace the uniqueness of those talents and feel empowered to boldly step into the game God has called them. These girls have been meeting monthly under the leadership of Michelle Krebs to develop insight, knowledge and tools to lead themselves, their community and their circle of influence. Through connecting with women business leaders, networking and mentoring opportunities, they are expanding their awareness of what is possible for their future.

They attended a Leadership Louisville in-person event in the 100 Wise Women series on April 20. This event allowed them to see one way in which professional women network and work together to help make a positive impact on our local community.

Students brought diapers to donate, participated in the event featuring Renee Shaw and the round table discussions and networking that followed.

High School Chromebook Device and Charger Collections Deadline is May 26

Thank you for a great year! As we wrap up the 2021-2022 school year Technology wants to make you aware that the current high school Chromebooks will be returned to the leasing company and new devices will be issued to high school students in August. Since the equipment is on lease, we must have ALL high school Chromebooks and chargers returned by the last day of school.

Any device not turned into the Media Center by May 26, will incur a non-refundable charge of $240, even if you return the device later. This is due to the lease ending and we cannot make exceptions. The charge will appear on FACTS and will trigger grades and transcripts to be held until the balance is paid.

Collection of Chromebooks is always completed during the week of finals. When you have taken your last final in May, simply deliver your Chromebook and charger to the Media Center to be collected by the Technology Department.

Please carefully review the following guidelines for Chromebook check-in:

1. Damaged Chromebooks:  If your Chromebook is damaged in any way: including but not limited to screen damage, power or volume button damage, keyboard damage, etc., you will need to have a check made payable to CAL for $80.00 to cover repair costs. You will also need a completed damage insurance claim which can be found in the high school office.

*** We will only accept a damaged Chromebook if it is accompanied by an $80 damage insurance claim deductible at the time of check-in***

2. Chargers:  You MUST have your charger at the time of Chromebook check-in. If you do not have your charger or if your charger is damaged, you will need to bring a check for $40 to accompany your Chromebook.

*** We will only accept the Chromebook with either a working school issued Lenovo or Toshiba-branded charger or the $40.00 for a missing/damaged charger ***

3. Clean:   All personal stickers will need to be removed from the Chromebook prior to hand-in. Chromebooks will not be accepted with anything other than school-issued barcode stickers. Please do not remove the Christian Academy property barcode from the device.

Help Build Hope Announcement and Volunteer Sign Ups

We are excited to announce that our volunteer sign ups for our house framing project with Help Build Hope are officially OPEN!

Here are the vital details that you’ll need to know before you sign up…

  1. On Friday, April 29, starting at 4 p.m. we need 30 physically strong people to volunteer to help move the lumber to its designated building areas which are within walking distance. We will also need 4 people during this same time frame who know how to use miter saws. Don’t worry, these saws and everything you’ll need will be provided.
  2. On Saturday, April 30, we are going to need 150 volunteers from start to finish. You will have the opportunity to sign up as a Crew LEADER or Crew MEMBER. If you sign up as a Crew Leader you MUST be in attendance for the training meeting on Friday night at 6:30 p.m. which will last approximately 1 hour. The only specialized training you’ll need is to attend the Friday night training, to be able to use a hammer and to make sure your group has a great time. If you sign up as a Crew Member, you need no previous training whatsoever.
  3. We are excited to have children 5 years or older join us on Saturday. Please note that everyone 18 years or older must sign a liability waiver during registration and parents must sign a waiver for their children. All children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent at all times. For those high school students between the ages of 16-18, your guardian must sign the waiver for you and then you’ll be allowed to serve.
  4. EVERYONE must wear close toed shoes and appropriate clothing for the weather. We’ve been told if it’s hot, we build. If it’s cold, we build. If it rains, we build. If it snows, we build. Please bring whatever will help you feel the most comfortable as we build in whatever weather we are given. All hammers, nails, etc. will be provided.
  5. Breakfast snacks, plenty of bottled water and sack lunches will be provided throughout the day. This is courtesy of our incredible PTO at English Station. Thank you for all that you do to serve us and the community! We appreciate you!
  6. Once we reach the needed volunteer quota of 150, please note, we do plan to cut off the online registration because let’s be honest, no one wants to idly stand around. But…rest assured…due to your incredibly generous and kind hearts…We as a CAL family have not only given enough money to build one house…not just two houses…but THREE HOUSES! So if you can’t volunteer to help with this house in April, don’t worry we are hoping to build two more houses this summer. So be on the lookout for that information coming soon.
  7. Last but not least…Here is the link to register online.

Should you have any questions or needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me via email. I’m really looking forward to serving with you and your families on the 29th and 30th.
