    Senior Reflection at CDA Flower Mound

    Elizabeth Rogers
    Brooks Ward is a member of the CDA Flower Mound Class of 2024. During his time at CDA, Brooks has been an active participant in the classroom, on the football field, and in the House system. Here is what Brooks has to say about the people who have blessed him the most during his time here.

    "I can say without a doubt that CDA has completely changed me for the better. I think the main reason for this is the incredible number of amazing teachers that I have had throughout my education here. Very few people can say that they have had a truly great teacher, let alone a life-changing one. Well, I can name at least five teachers at CDA that I know have changed my life. They have made me into a better student, leader, and Christian. I am forever grateful to this school and its teachers."

    Our teachers at CDA Flower Mound come alongside parents to help kids grow both academically and spiritually. If you want to learn more about our Classical and Christian school, go to CDAlions.org.

  • Senior Reflection at CDA Flower Mound

    Emery Hull is a member of the CDA Flower Mound Class of 2024 and has attended school here since 2nd grade. When asked about her time at CDA, Emery shared these thoughts:

    "CDA has nourished my heart, mind, and soul with things good, true, and beautiful. My heart has been filled with good friends that I will keep forever, my mind is full of wonder, and my soul is sated by good literature. 'Alma Mater' is Latin for 'nourishing mother' and CDA has certainly done that." 

    If you feel your child will thrive in our Classical Christian environment, learn more about us at CDALions.info.

    Elizabeth Rogers
    Over spring break this year, twenty-two members of Electus Vox (rhetoric select choir), along with six parent chaperones, and CDA FM faculty participated in a choir mission trip to Norway. While there, Electus Vox sang at many places, including churches dating back to the 1200's and at the Oslo Opera House. The choir performances were divided into four categories: songs of the Earth, songs of hope, songs of Christ’s life, and songs of Benediction. Our students also sang the Norwegian National Anthem.

  • CC & FM All State Band

    This past weekend, 14 members of the bands from both Flower Mound and CDA Collin County campuses participated in the TPSMEA All State Clinic and Concert weekend in Richardson. The concerts were held in McFarlin Performing Arts Center on the SMU campus.
     
    The students worked with guest clinician Amy Woody (University of North Texas Wind- Studies Department and Director of Athletic Bands). Our musicians spent dedicated hours in rehearsals benefiting from these world-class clinicians and learning music that they would then perform on the concert on Saturday. Outside the rehearsals and performance, students had fun fellowshipping with one another at Top Golf in Allen! 
     
    Mrs. Bowen, Mr. Thacker, and Mrs. Clements are proud of their students for their tireless musical efforts, and humbled by the time and energy they spent this weekend auditioning, preparing, and performing such amazing repertoire.

    CC & FM All State Choir Clinic

    Last weekend, two choir students from Flower Mound and CDA Collin County campuses participated in the TPSMEA All-State Clinic and Concert weekend in Richardson. The All-State Choir Concert was performed at McFarlin Auditorium on the SMU campus on Saturday evening.
     
    The students worked with guest clinician and conductor Dr. José “Peppie” Calvar who is an associate professor and assistant director of choral activities at the Setnor School of Music at Syracuse University. The choir had a marvelous time learning a varied repertoire of music and gleaning musical knowledge from this talented conductor. Outside of the rehearsals and performance, students had fun fellowshipping with one another over meals and bonding at Top Golf in Allen! 
     
    Mrs. Westgate and Mrs. Kiser are proud of their students for their many hours of rehearsal, preparation, focus, and endurance that are all part of this All-State process.
