Spectrum does not have an estimated time of repair at this time. The phone lines in the main offices at schools are working, but please be patient as you call. If you cannot get through to the main office at your student’s school and need to relay a message, you can call the Central Administrative Office (CAO) at 335-1867. Thank you! -CGPS We apologize for any inconvenience the outages have caused. We will provide an update as Spectrum shares more information.

Keep shining! The Cape Central Academy Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) program was also featured during the meeting with Central Academy Zech Payne and JAG Coordinator Ursulla Wadley making comments. CA student Taylor Banks read her award-winning essay as she shared obstacles she has had to overcome throughout her life, and goals she hopes to achieve through the support of JAG.
