Mission

The C3 PTSA mission is to support and advocate for every child in partnership with staff, families, and the community to create a safe and caring learning environment for all students to grow and feel confident as kind, courageous thinkers. We will build, engage, and empower our families and communities to make every child’s potential a reality.

Background Statement

The C3 PTSA began shortly after the inception of Creativity Challenge Community School (C3) in 2012. A group of parents envisioned this organization as a resource and partner to our school to help enhance each student's learning experience together. It is now an active presence in our school community with a focus on being a connector and support to our parents, teachers, staff, and most of all, our students. They are the heart of everything we do!
