The first day of the 2016-17 school year has arrived and, with it, some inspiring changes. The excitement on campus is noticeable as Roger Glass Stadium - Home of the CJ Eagles - will fill its stands tonight for the first time for the much-anticipated Meet the Eagles night. The dedication and the blessing of the stadium will take place at this event. New parents are invited to a welcome social at 6:00 p.m.
With all of the excitement surrounding the opening of the stadium and Eagle Field, the athletic teams and Eagle Pride band aren't the only ones christening a new facility this year. Musicians, singers and the entire CJ performing arts community will soon take the stage in our renovated auditorium which will be ready for our first performance later this fall.
While the progression of renovations and additions have revitalized our school and campus over recent years, our mission remains the same. We are an educational community of faith, inspired by the goodness of God and committed to educating the whole person, working for justice and developing family spirit.
We are looking forward to a very exciting school year at CJ and we are happy to have the support of parents, like you, to make this year a success.
God Bless, and Go Eagles!

GUIDANCE OFFICE
Office staffing
The CJ Guidance Office will have a new face through the month of September. Jama Badinghaus is currently out of the office on parental leave and plans to return at the end of September. We have arranged for Stephanie Alim as a long-term substitute guidance counselor for this time period. Mrs. Alim has a master's degree and license in school counseling and is excited to assist the guidance team in this manner.
A.J. Grimm will be working for three days a week and arrangements are in place for Charlene Wheeler, CJ's post secondary counselor and guidance department chair, to be available for students and parents should they need assistance when Mrs. Grimm is not in the office.

The new directions will be emailed to all seniors as soon as the information is available. Students will not be able to request letters until the new version is released. Previously submitted requests made through Family Connection will no longer appear.
If a teacher already uploaded a letter of recommendation to Family Connection, it should be in the system.

"We shall never be able to do enough for a God who is so good towards us.
