PTL coordinates several events throughout the year to raise funds to further the teaching and ministry of CLS.  These events require a lot of volunteer power and include the Brunch, Spring Fling, and Plant Sales.  Successful fundraising allows our school to continue to provide for classroom needs, enable student enrichment activities such as field trips, and address changing technology needs that are above and beyond the typical school budget.

As a parent of CLS, you get to help decide!  

In the past, the PTL organization has purchased books for the library, provided funding for field trips, purchased materials for music, science, and P.E. class use, given funds toward honor bands and show choir competitions and uniforms, purchased an industrial vacuum for the school, given funding for further development of the CLS website and the REACH program that targets increasing enrollment, given money toward debt reduction for the building project and provided teachers with dollars to purchasing supplies for their classrooms.  This would not be possible without your support!
