Best Christmas Pageant Ever Production
🎄 You’re Invited! 🎄
Get ready for holiday chaos, laughter, and heartwarming moments as The Best Christmas Pageant Ever comes to life on our stage—brought to you by our talented CCA Theater Club students!
When the Herdman kids—wild, mischievous, and totally unpredictable—decide to join the church Christmas pageant, the town braces for disaster. No one expects these rascals to actually steal the show, but with a mix of humor, unexpected wisdom, and plenty of Christmas spirit, they transform the pageant into an unforgettable celebration.
This hilarious and heartwarming story is a reminder that the true meaning of Christmas can shine through in the most unlikely ways!

FAFSA is now open!!
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid is now available. Students who are planning on going to college in the fall need to complete the 26-27 FAFSA form in order to qualify for financial aid. This qualifies you for Federal grants and loans, but is often required by colleges to receive scholarships from the school as well. Deadline to fill it out is in January, but the earlier the better!
Coming Soon: Free College Application Week
The week of October 13-19 is free college application week for students applying for Texas colleges and universities through the Apply Texas Application. Any Texas resident can apply to any public Texas school as a freshman or transfer student for free. If you have multiple Texas schools you want to apply to - this could save you hundreds of dollars.
