Good afternoon CMS families. We would like to wish all of our families a very restful and safe Thanksgiving break. There will be no school for the week of 11/23. All distance learning classes will resume on 11/30.
As we move into the holiday season, it's important to reflect and take time for ourselves. This year has been especially difficult for all of us, and we would like each of you to know how thankful we are for your support throughout this first semester. We are looking forward to the day when we have our students back on campus for in person learning.
For our parents, it's important to remember you MUST take care of yourself so you can take care of your kids. Please take a few minutes to read through this short article for some tips to help you through this Covid-19 pandemic. Thank you!

Good morning CMS families. We have a couple important announcements we need all of our families to be aware of.
First, student progress reports have been posted and are available for viewing on the Infinite Campus portal. Please be sure to check in on your child's grades periodically and should you have any questions or concerns reach out to his/her teachers.
Second, for those who RSVP'd for the family movie night scheduled for tomorrow night 11/17, we have rescheduled the event to 12/8 due to the strong possibility of high winds. Please be sure to mark your calendars. For those who RSVP'd, we will email information to you as the event gets closer. Thank you!
