Commitments for the
Future
Dear CAG Community,
The start of the third trimester is a reminder that the remaining days of the school year are few and the
scholastic year ahead is quickly taking shape. This intersection of now and what is a head usually means it is
time to think of enrollment and re-enrollment for the 2018/2019 school year.
For us at CAG, March is a time we review our goals and begin to evaluate our progress and start making
commitments for the future. We see this happen in the classrooms as students, parents and teachers undergo
conferences and reflect on milestones and achievements and establish goals for the future. For our teachers,
we see this happen as colleagues throughout the school meet to discuss growth as well as outline hopes and
dreams for next year for our students, our grade levels and our academic departments.
As a school wide community, we are reflecting on the partnerships we have made with our students, families,
faculty, alumni and community leaders. This is the time of year we review the feedback we have collected and
evaluate what needs improving for the next year so that we honor our relationships with our stakeholders and
assure the community we remain committed to a legacy of excellence for which CAG is known. This reflection
process includes reviewing our surveys.
We were privileged to have received over 1000 participants partake in the community survey and over 780
parents take time to respond and comment on behalf of the work we are doing at CAG. Overall, we are proud
that our families report confidence and care for their school of choice. As we take a deep drive into the data, the
administrative team is meeting to identify the areas we recognize as strengths at CAG, as well as begin to
identify the areas our community considers important aspects to reconsider for improvement.
