Crescent City Jr Sr High second year building construction students recently worked on a couple of community projects. In anticipation of literacy month, they put together these two little libraries to house books for students to check out or to share a book they no longer use. Stay tuned for the location of these cute little houses! They also built a workbench for the field house that all sports at CCJSHS will be able to utilize as needed! Great things are happening in Mr Tessaro’s class!

Progress Reports for the 1st 9 Weeks go home this Thursday, September 12th. Parents, when reviewing your student's Progress Report, it would be a great idea to contact the school to schedule a Parent/Teacher conference with all teachers that teach your student. Call the school at 386-698-1629.


As a reminder, our Senior student and parent night is 2 weeks from tomorrow. We need to see you to discuss whether or not your student is on track to graduate, we need to discuss SAT/ACT, FAFSA, college/career technical schools, as well as use of the Common App to support students in preparing for their future for after high school. We look forward to seeing you in our cafeteria on Monday, September 23rd at 6pm.


Game Day! Come out and support your Raiders as we travel to PK Yonge.
