This year, we’re excited to launch CSPES Gives Back, a new campaign where each Family Dinner Night will feature a donation drive for a cause in our wider community.

For our first Family Dinner Night, we’ll be collecting items to support the Anne Arundel County Humane Society.
For the past three years, we’ve built a strong and beautiful CSPES community—now it’s time to extend that impact beyond our walls. Together, we can show that our Tiger pride is unstoppable, both inside and outside of school.
Suggested donations may include pet food, treats, blankets, toys, or cleaning supplies. Every contribution makes a difference!
