The Parent Association will be hosting our Annual Clothing Swap & Shop May 20-22, 2024. At this event you can contribute—and/or shop for—gently used uniform clothing, CDS spirit wear, CDS outerwear, PE shoes, and CDS athletic wear at great prices. Participating in the Swap & Shop not only saves families money, it supports efforts of our Parent Association and school AND it’s eco-friendly—it keeps perfectly good garments out of our landfills and reduces the resources needed to make something new. Find details below.

Interested in volunteering?

We will need plenty of volunteers to ensure that this year’s shop and swap is a success! We need people to collect donations, sort and organize items, tally family credits, and help people shop. There are several shifts available and we encourage you to sign up today! Volunteers who assist with the Swap will earn 25 credits to utilize during the One Day Sale and will also receive a 20% off coupon for The Spirit Store. See more details on the sign up!
