NEWS FROM THE SCHOOL Visit CSCA Board Table during Arts Showcase The Center School Community Association's spring "house parties" were a success and a great way to end the year. The CSCA would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to the CSCA this year, so stop by and see us in the Commons during Arts Showcase for a small token of appreciation. If you haven't had an opportunity to donate, it is never too late to contribute. We'll be hosting a bake sale and selling re-useable Center School shopping bags, or you can just give in the spirit of supporting the arts. Any donation or contribution is welcome!
