Let’s Climb to New Heights!

Support the New Play Area Campaign

CCJDS students love to run, jump and play. They need even more fun and challenge – let’s give them a place to climb! We are adding 3 state-of-the-art, freestanding climbing structures in the area adjacent to the ORCA. We are also enhancing our existing K/1 playground – maintaining the beloved play structure, expanding the rubber surface area, and adding a gymnastics bar.

The cost of this project is $250,000 and we’ve raised $160,000 to date. Please give generously to help us fully fund these wonderful new play areas for our students. With your support, we can complete this special campaign while also meeting our annual fundraising need for operations.

Thank You to Our New Heights Donors. Please Join Us!

Todah rabah to the parents, grandparents and friends who have already donated generously to this project. We hope you will join this amazing group:

A History of Vision and Growth

Join the visionaries who continue to build our beautiful, state-of-the-art Jewish Day School.  Since our founding, generous donors have contributed over $11 million to CCJDS capital projects – making it possible for us to build our beautiful, 18,000 square foot classroom building that opened in 2009 and adding the Outdoor Recreation and Community Area (ORCA) in 2019.  In 2022 we added additional seating to the ORCA and began developing plans for expanded play areas.

We dream and we grow – with careful planning.  Our Board of Trustees has a longstanding commitment to fiscal responsibility that includes active fundraising and avoiding debt so that we can continue to improve our campus to meet student needs while also delivering a superior program and protecting tuition affordability and scholarships.  The generous support of parents, grandparents, alumni families and our broader community makes our dreams possible. Todah rabah!

We invite you to join us. Be a part of the conversation about campus improvements and help build the school and community where generations will blossom.
