What excites you about CLCA?

Everything about CLCA excites me; the students, their families, our community and our opportunity are things that excite me. God is literally pouring out blessings to each and everyone of us, and we try to focus on those blessings by sharing that with others.

Fun Fact:

Our family has a Goldendoodle named Nelson, named after Jordy Nelson. I never thought our family of six would add more chaos to our household, but we did and there are no regrets. He is a fun, loving pup with a lot of energy and personality.
