Faith and Fellowship at Secondary Retreat Our middle and high school students started off this school year with two impactful retreats. What better way to start the new school year than learning about the Bible and spending time with friends?! While the retreat was a time of fun, it was also intentionally set up so that students would have time to grow closer together and closer to Jesus.
One student in particular had a testimony we couldn't keep to ourselves. Click below to read more!
Family Portal Design Updates NEW The Family Portal has a fresh look! Based on feedback we received from the communications survey that was sent to our families in the spring, we have made some updates to the navigation and design of the Family Portal. Enhancements include:
If you have any questions or suggestions on how we can improve your Family Portal experience, please email Katie Tuck, webmaster. Time for School Pictures, Mon, Aug 26 | Tue, Aug 27 NEW What do students wear?
What time of day are the pictures?
What if my student is absent that day?
The school is providing the pictures to you through your Activity Fee.
Did you know? Carlton Farms delivers EVERY Thursday NEW Our Farm2Fork class encourages students to eat healthily and buy local to get the freshest, most nutrient-rich produce. We have the luxury of having local produce, meat and artisan foods delivered to our school for a nominal fee by Carlton Farms in Rockmart, Georgia. They deliver to Cornerstone EVERY Thursday for a nominal fee and sell a wide range of local products:
Deliveries resume the week of August 19. Orders must be received by Wednesday at noon the week of purchase. Please email Raeanna Pitzer with any questions. Towing Signs Are Posted We experienced some illegally parked vehicles on our campus over the summer. This has prompted us to establish a towing contract with a company recommended to us by the Acworth police. Our goal is the safety of our families and facility. We are aware that there may be times that students or parents need to leave their vehicle parked overnight. We request that you let us know by completing the Overnight Parking Request Form so we do not inadvertently have your vehicle towed. Note: The Overnight Parking Request Form can also be located on the Family Portal - General Information - Forms.
NEW Link to Complete Carpool Instructions can be found on the Family Portal under Elementary. Please pay special attention to the dismissal procedures:

Cornerstone - Solid as Rock NEW If you’ve been on campus lately, you’ve most likely seen a very vibrant addition out front! Seniors Kylie Phelps, Symone Gaskin, Alyssa Galvin, and Ashley Scott recently spent three (sweltering) hours painting this adorable theme. The entire mural consists of elements from “Up” the movie. The house theme was Kylie’s idea and was inspired by the high school House Council. Also, each of the balloons represents each house and its color. Click here to read the full story and about the special tribute to Mrs. Borders.
