A Note From the Head of School

Warrior Family,

First and foremost, I would like to share my deepest gratitude to our Warrior family for your emails, kind words, and most of all prayers that have been so graciously given to me and my family over the last few weeks during this time of transition. Cottage Hill has been home to our family for the past six years and I could not be more honored to begin a new season of service through leadership. Our family has been incredibly blessed to wear the Warrior blue and gold and are looking forward to many years to come. I would also like to personally thank Jimmy and April Messer for their faithful service over the last three years. Because of their diligent work and investment, Cottage Hill is experiencing some of our best days as an institution. God has mightily blessed our academy and we are looking forward to seeing what He has in store moving forward.

As we transition into our summer months, your leadership team is hard at work preparing for the 2019-2020 academic year. I would like to remind you that all student activity fees (grades 1-12) are due during the month of June. I encourage you to take care of that at your earliest convenience. I pray that each of you have a wonderful and relaxing summer and ask that you partner with our leadership team in prayer for the coming school year. I look forward to partnering with each of you in the near future.

Go Warriors!

Jeremy Sandefur

Campus Book Store

Our friends at Campus Bookstore have started making appointments for you to come in and get your books. Often times you end up having to wait in line, or they are scrambling to get all of your books at one time. In an effort to combat this they are accepting appointments. Once you book an appointment they will contact you to find out what grade your child is in, and if applicable, what electives they are taking. This way they can go ahead and pull your books before you ever get there, and you will have an employee that is completely focused on you while you are in the store.

This also helps to show what times they expect to busy or short staffed, so that you know if you come in during this time you may have to wait. Follow this link to pick an appointment time, and if nothing they have listed fits in to your schedule please feel free to email them at CampusBookstoreMobile@gmail.com to set up a date.
If you have any questions please contact them, as this is all we know at this time.
