📣 Reminder: Zoo Trip Tomorrow! 🦁🐒🐧
We're excited for tomorrow's zoo trip to celebrate the 82% of students who have earned zero disciplinary referrals for the entire year! Here are a few important reminders for students and families:
🧺 Bring a lunch or money to purchase lunch at the zoo.
👟 Dress for the weather and remember that school dress code still applies.
📱 Phones will be allowed, but students are responsible for their use.
🚌 All students attending must ride the bus to and from the zoo.
Students not attending the trip are still expected to attend school and participate in educational activities.
If a parent chooses to keep their child home, please remember to call the school office. These absences will be counted.
As long as the zoo remains open, we plan to go rain or shine! Let’s make it a great day! 🐯

Our 5th Graders learned a lot about good decision-making and substance abuse awareness through our D.A.R.E. program and from our awesome SRO, Officer McWhorter. They graduated from the program on Thursday and celebrated with popcicles and a visit from a K-9 officer and his police dog! #ourcmsstory

🎓💙 One of our favorite traditions! Today, the seniors took their final walk through the halls of CMS. Our current students and staff lined the halls, cheering them on as they made their way through, celebrating how far they’ve come and all that lies ahead. To the Class of 2025 — we are so proud of you. As you spread your wings and soar beyond your Eagle nest, know that your CMS family will always be cheering you on. Fly high and chase your dreams! 🦅✨ #OnceAnEagleAlwaysAnEagle #CMSProud #ClassOf2025
