Guidance<br />
—Christine Englert<br />
Secondary Guidance Counselor<br />
<strong>Coral</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> High School<br />
opened its doors in 1996 with 100 students. In<br />
2000, CSCA graduated their first senior class of 12<br />
students. The high school has excelled and grown<br />
in many areas including enrollment, course offerings,<br />
sports, fine arts, and numerous activities.<br />
CSCA began its college preparatory curriculum<br />
with core honors courses and one Advanced Placement<br />
class. Adding AP courses each year, CSCA<br />
now offers students 12 AP options:<br />
AP English Literature and Composition<br />
AP Calculus AB<br />
AP Statistics<br />
AP Biology<br />
AP Environmental Science<br />
AP Microeconomics<br />
AP American Government<br />
AP World History<br />
AP U.S. History<br />
AP Spanish<br />
AP 2D Art<br />
AP Drawing Portfolio<br />
As I look to begin my seventh year at CSCA, I am<br />
excited to see what God has planned for the future<br />
of <strong>this</strong> high school. I am blessed each day by the<br />
exceptional students who walk these halls. Their<br />
spiritual commitment, love for each other, academic<br />
motivation, and the close relationships that bond<br />
the students, faculty and administration are what<br />
make <strong>this</strong> school a second home for me and many<br />
others.<br />
CSCA has graduated a total of 420 students and<br />
another 55 will cross the stage and receive diplomas<br />
at the end of May. Thank you for supporting<br />
<strong>this</strong> ministry and please pray for the continued<br />
leadership of the administration as we guide students<br />
to excel academically and grow in their faith.<br />

4 | The Legacy<br />
CSCA Athletics<br />
—Steve Fitzgerald<br />
Athletic Director<br />
The athletic department at <strong>Coral</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> has come a long<br />
way in the short amount of time since the decision to add a high school.<br />
Not only has it grown in number of sports available (CSCA currently<br />
has 14 varsity sports), it has also grown into a very successful program.<br />
Of the 14 varsity sports, 10 have won at least one individual or team<br />
district championship. We have had many individual state participants<br />
including six individual state champions in track and field. More importantly,<br />
we are proud of the effort and dedication of the student/athletes<br />
and coaches along with the parental support that make up our “Crusader<br />
Family”. This hard work has established <strong>Coral</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> <strong>Christian</strong><br />
<strong>Academy</strong> as one of the top athletic programs of its size in Broward<br />
County. I would like to offer a special invitation to our alumni to come<br />
and check out the tradition that you helped develop with your perseverance<br />
and commitment through the early years.<br />

To our Alumni,<br />
Advancement<br />
—Mr. Matt Cleveland<br />
Advancement Director<br />
We hope you are enjoying our new alumni publication. It is imperative<br />
that you as alumni know how special you are to CSCA. You have helped<br />
build a foundation of excellence that is thriving even in these tough<br />
economic times. We hope that you will enjoy the news and networking<br />
that has happened through the CSCA alumni Facebook page as well.<br />
Come back and visit whenever you can. You are always welcome.<br />
We have made many strides <strong>this</strong> year in the Advancement Department.<br />
We had our first annual Dinner, Dance, and Auction that was held on<br />
January 23rd at the Parkland Golf and Country Club. We raised over<br />
$29,000 in one night with the proceeds going to the General Fund. We<br />
also began the Winterfest tradition at CSCA. This was held in the middle<br />
of December. It included a Christmas Tree sale, a craft fair, a live<br />
nativity, and performances by our elementary students. It was a great<br />
day. We are working on our Annual Golf tournament which is always<br />
a success. Also, TAP (Teachers and Parents) raised over $45,000 in the<br />
annual Country fair <strong>this</strong> year. The advancement department and the<br />
CSCA family have continued to grow and thrive!! God has truly blessed<br />
us.<br />
We have been able to build our much needed parking lot. Our athletic<br />
facilities have been upgraded; smartboards are being put in classrooms.<br />
Improvement is everywhere. We recently raised $85,000 through a<br />
matching gift that allowed us to put a much needed new roof on Building<br />
C. All of <strong>this</strong> is a tribute to God’s faithfulness. It has been a tough<br />
year for Americans economically, but God has continued to provide for<br />
CSCA. Please pray for us and God’s continued blessing on our school.<br />
We look forward to seeing you on campus sometime in the near future!<br />
