The arts are still alive at CCA! Neshawn Calloway and her talented Vocal Music students invite you to enjoy this year's holiday concert from the comfort of your home. Enjoy!
At CCA, creativity is not limited to our fine arts classrooms! Check out the incredible work our students are doing on a project to create a voice-activated prosthetic arm! Congratulations to Jamie McCurry and his talented students on some amazing work so far. And many thanks to TVA and Battelle for making this project possible!
****************************************
The HCS choice application is now available online for families interested in applying to CCA!
Please note: CCA admission decisions are based upon auditions, rather than a lottery. However, we use the same general application as the lottery-based magnet schools.

We also invite you to attend a virtual information session in January! Sign up here.
To apply to CCA:
1. Submit your CCA enrollment application through your existing Parent Portal login account, or create an account if you are new to the district. If you would like to apply to CCA for more than one child, you must complete separate applications for each student.
2. After your application is received, we will email you to make arrangements for your child's audition.
3. Once all auditions have been completed, enrollment decisions will be made and families will be notified by February 15, 2021.
The deadline to apply for all Hamilton County choice schools is January 31, 2021.

****************************
Hamilton County Schools are currently operating in Phase 1 based upon criteria set by the School Reopening Task Force. All CCA students will learn remotely through Friday, January 15.
Stay tuned for confirmation from HCS regarding plans beyond that date.
HCS makes decisions about instructional phases for the district based upon evolving conditions, with possible temporary closures of individual schools as needed.
COHORT Information for the 2020-2021 Academic Year
When Hamilton County is operating in Phase 2, in-person learners will come to school two days a week, and learn remotely the other three days. (Remote learners, as always, will log in to classes each day from home, regardless of the phase.)
Cohorts for Phase 2 - CCA students have been divided alphabetically by the student's last name. Last names A - L are in Group A (attending in person on Monday & Tuesday during Phase 2) and last names M - Z are in Group B (attending in person on Thursday & Friday during Phase 2). During Phase 2, all students (regardless of cohort) will log into classes and learn virtually on Wednesdays. This system will help us reduce in-person class sizes anytime we are in Phase 2.
Parents with a special request for cohorts should contact the school directly at 423-498-7365.

Online Payment Change for School Meals
Hamilton County Schools is changing our online payment process to a new vendor. The link to the old vendor MyPaymentPlus will no longer accept payments beginning next Friday, November 27. Parents will need to send cash or check in the transition time between the Thanksgiving and Winter breaks (11/30-12/17).
The new system will go online during the Winter Break, and those funds will be available for use when school resumes on January 6, 2021. Meals are free through the end of the school year, so this is only for a la carte/extras and adult meals.
The new link is: https://family.titank12.com/ - Titan School Solutions. Again, this system is not yet useable until sometime during Winter Break.
