Our annual “Amazing, Survivor, Fear Factor Race” otherwise known as “Survivor” was a big success last week.  The teams scattered all over Canyonville retrieving clues, performing tasks that required team work and the use of both body and brains.  Congratulations to Jamie Wang for being the ultimate survivor!

The honor recognized him for his Spanish language translating services for residents of the city and was presented during a banquet for 100 guests at the Seven Feathers Resort on February 17.

This class is now in it’s third year here at CCA, and has accomplished quite a lot in those years.

Students from SEO/Internet Marketing are taught the nuances of the internet, changes that happen with Google Algorithms, Social Media channels to use, why use them, when to use them and then they put it all together and go out into the community and help local businesses create a web-presence.

Last year the class created six websites for businesses in the Canyonville area, this year, the class tackled a large website as a group project – Myrtle Creek Golf Course.

To start this project out, this largely diverse class first looked at the current website, they then reviewed the changes they could make and improve, compared what other golf courses offered all over the world and they then selected several different new looks for the Myrtle Creek Golf Course.

With an action plan in place, they invited the superintendent of the golf course to interview him and learn more about the needs of Myrtle Creek Golf Course.  Following this meeting, and a trip to tour the golf course, the real work began:    ReDesigning and implementation of the new design.

Myrtle Creek Golf Course – After

Within 5 days, the new golf course website was up and running with all Social Media strategies and vehicles in place, backlinks started, multiple visuals available and a completely new look!

Students vs Faculty in Donkey Basketball was a lot of fun.  The student team won!

This first week of February at Canyonville Christian Academy is Spirit Week which leads up to Homecoming.  The Homecoming court has been chosen and the King and Queen will be announced at the big homecoming basketball game on Saturday night.  (That’s still a surprise!)

Many former students, the alumni, from this christian academy will be returning this weekend for the big event.  So far this week, we’ve had pajama day where students and staff came to school in their  pajamas, backwards day, crazy hair and hat day and we’ll definitely have blue and gold day.

The classes are competing against each other for prizes.  Doors have been decorated, hush buttons have been stolen and the hunt for The Pilot’s Wheel is afoot.  Lots of fun this week!
