CSD seeks to cultivate a wholesome environment that is conducive to learning. Dress code expectations are not intended to measure spirituality or to promote legalism, but rather serve as standards that enhance the teaching and learning environment, and preserve the ethos of the CSD community.
We do not currently offer bus service. Our school district does offer opportunities to carpool within our community of families.
