Get Involved
Parent-Teacher Fellowship
At CFS we have several ways for parents and even grandparents to be involved. Our school knows the importance of partnering with each student’s family to prepare them for the future, and we love for our students to see their parents helping at events, attending games or performances, and helping in the classroom or on field trips.
