Testing Info
Do you have a child struggling to read? Is the thought of another test to fail have your stomach in knots? Don’t forget that CBCCA has an alternative to the PASS or Stanford Test, the Brigance Test. This is especially geared toward struggling or non-traditional learners and is a great alternative to assess students’ abilities and can help provide for clarity in discerning curriculum choices, goal setting, and school year planning. This test will be offered by CBCCA on a case by case basis in lieu of PASS or SAT tests. Please call Claudia at the office if you would like more information.

Poll!
Dear friends, I have wanted to provide a home school ID for many years. With our new database I may be able to finally do that. I can have it print out family ID badges which would include parents names and all the children along with the CBCCA logo. I would have to add data such as the current school year. I know these are helpful for discounts etc. I don’t want to have too much info on there for security reasons, but what other info do you think should be on there, if any? For example, is your address necessary? Do you want individual ones for each student??? I can upload pictures as well-provided you send them to me.
Let me know, thanks-Claudia

Share Christ this Summer with CYIA!
From Mark Mansell –
Does your teen 15 or older have a heart for Christ and a desire to share the Gospel? Christian Youth in Action, or CYIA, offers a summer internship specifically designed to train students to share their faith.
CYIA is a missions program specifically designed for high school and college age students. Training, materials and ministry opportunities are provided to help students confidently share their faith with children in their very own communities. Each year approximately 100 students across SC reach out to nearly 10,000 children throughout the state.
Some of your training will be held at your local CEF office. However, a week-long training school is held at Columbia International University in Columbia, South Carolina. CIU is one of the Premier Missions universities in the world. They believe strongly in the CYIA program. They offer tuition discounts to students who serve in CYIA and wish to further their education. There is a cost for your materials, training, meals and lodging. Your local CEF representative will help you discover ways of inviting others to invest in your missions training to help cover some of the expenses.
