Each year, CCA holds an elementary Read-A-Thon designed to foster the love of reading in our students. Students are sponsored by small donations from parents, grandparents, and friends to encourage them to meet their reading goals. If the students meet their overall goal, the reward is punishing Mr. Swank in some way (like getting a bad haircut, living on the school roof for a day, or being duct taped to a wall!) Funds from this event typically benefit elementary teachers and the library.
