CAIS recently celebrated Read Across Corry with an afternoon full of reading and Dr. Seuss activities. Students engaged in dramatic read-alouds, book-themed games, and art projects inspired by their favorite stories.  Parents joined in, creating a shared experience that highlighted the joy of reading. Through these fun and interactive activities, CAIS encouraged students to develop a lifelong love of books and learning.

CAIS students delivered a fantastic performance of Aladdin last Saturday afternoon, showcasing their talent, creativity, and hard work. The lively cast, vibrant costumes, and impressive set design brought the beloved story to life. Thanks to the dedication of the director, cast, and crew, the performance was a true success and a testament to our students' abilities. We’re incredibly proud of their effort and thank them for making our school shine!

The 100th day of school at the intermediate level is a day to celebrate hard work, growth, and progress in a more meaningful way. With engaging activities, opportunities for reflection, and chances to build community, the 100th day provides a rich learning experience for students. It reminds them that every day counts, and every milestone, big or small, is worth celebrating. As students approach the next part of the year, the 100th day helps them recognize their potential and motivates them to continue striving for success.

A big thank you to Mr. Johnston for an outstanding CAIS Winter Concert! Parents were full of praise, and many expressed how much they enjoyed the performance. The "Grandma's Chicken Soup" theme was both funny and creative, with students fully embracing their roles. Special thanks to our staff who stayed late to help, and to Mr. Lander for playing the piano. The soloists and narrators did a wonderful job, and Mrs. Nuhfer had a blast playing the role of Grandma!  It was a truly memorable evening!

Fifth graders recently took part in a fun and interactive lesson where they became "sentence doctors," performing surgery on various sentences to practice identifying and fixing fragments, run-ons, and compound sentences. Armed with their "tools", students worked to determine which sentences were complete and which needed repairs.  Under the direction to Mrs. Wintemute, students also honed their skills in spotting sentence fragments that lacked a subject or predicate, as well as run-ons that combined too many ideas without the correct punctuation. By the end of the lesson, students had a clearer understanding of how to create strong, well-constructed sentences and confidently diagnose common sentence errors.
