Annual Appeal

Kicking off in the Fall, the Annual Appeal supports the essential items that the CPS budget does not cover. This list includes basic items such as tools for landscaping, classroom supplies, tutoring and counseling for students, and major support for our athletic and academic teams. Other necessary items include everything from security cameras to maintenance contracts for our copiers; staffing for college counseling, technology support, and school security; and building repairs.
