We are pleased to announce that CAL has partnered with Prarie Ridge from Mason City to offer psychiatry and therapy services to our students and their families.

Our school counselor, Danielle Brood, is available to assist you in navigating these sevices to meet your family's needs.

Additionally, you can find her contact information on the CAL Community School website under the "School Counselor" tab located in the parents and students section.

6 piece LEGO Challenge. 4th graders were tasked with designing an innovative solution to a problem that may be common at a dairy farm. There was some very creative and analytical thinking done on our first day back! This ties into our studies of how technological advancements have changed and will continue to change the way people farm and how products/goods are made and shared globally.
