Silver Sponsors

November 18, 2025
November has us reflecting on gratitude, and we are especially thankful for our amazing local businesses that support CEPTSA. Today, we recognize 6 incredible Silver Level Sponsors who chose to support our school in a big way.  We are truly grateful for their generosity and partnership!
Blake’s Pizzeria & Ice Cream is the go‑to neighborhood pizzeria where you can grab a giant slice, a tasty grinder, and a scoop of homemade ice cream while soaking up the friendly, small‑town charm that’s kept it thriving for over three decades. Bonus! Both owners, Emma and Teanna are Riverview School District Aluminae!!
RC Painting & Sons, Inc is a trusted, 40-year family painting firm in the Eastside, offering high‑quality interior and exterior services for homes and businesses, with a reputation for reliability and detailed work. Consistently praised for meticulous craftsmanship, clear communication, and honest estimates.
Carnation Candle Co is a local, woman‑run business that crafts hand‑poured, eco‑conscious natural soy candles for local customers who appreciate a personal touch and a pleasant, subtle fragrance. Sarah Soptich runs the shop and is known for her “love‑and‑care” approach.
TJ Dance Studio is a long‑standing, family‑run studio where dancers of all ages can explore a wide range of styles in a supportive, community‑focused environment. Known for a warm, welcoming atmosphere where “anyone can dance.” Owners Jayne and Peg have built a space that feels like a second home.
Cherry Valley Veterinary Hospital is the friendly neighborhood vet where you can trust that your four‑legged family members will get top‑notch, compassionate care—whether it’s a routine nail trim or a late‑night emergency. Repeatedly praised for compassion, patience, and the ability to squeeze in urgent cases even when the schedule is full.
Carnation Café & Lounge is a family‑run legacy owned by the Fisher family who “pour their hearts” into every dish. In a casual, welcoming cafe‑lounge setting with indoor seating and a relaxed outdoor area they serve generous portions of classic American comfort with a few unexpected twists.
