P.A.C.E@CCPS

Leveraging on this sound and strong PE curriculum, P.A.C.E is designed to cultivate a deep love for sports and outdoors and promote a lifelong healthy living attitude and nurture character.

At CCPS, we envision our students to be:

• Courageous and
• Empowered Leaders through Sports

Through PACE, all CCPS students would be nurtured into young people who are future-ready, fit, healthy and strong mentally and physically. They will

• Build their emotional resilience and mental and physical perseverance so that they will have the energy and spirit to keep trying no matter how hard the odds may be; and
• Learn to make decisions and take responsible risks as part of character formation
