CJMS Weekly Updates

Good Evening, Cabin John Middle School Families!

This is your Principal, Ms. Snider with the Sunday announcements for the week of October 16 - 20. First, I wanted to express my support for the many members of our school community who are impacted, directly and indirectly, by the violence that continues to unfold in Israel and Gaza. My heart goes out to students, staff, and families among us who are currently experiencing distress and anxiety concerning the safety and well-being of their relatives and loved ones. We want to be sure our students and staff are supported during this time and on an ongoing basis as needed. Please remember that our administrative and counseling teams are always here for you and please reach out if you need additional support today or in the future.

I also want to share a message that Cabin John Middle School deeply condemns antisemitism and Islamophobia. Hateful or inappropriate comments or behaviors of any kind will not be tolerated and we will work diligently to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for our students and staff. I urge us all to come together now to support each other and to stand up to hate and violence.

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is committed to ensuring our students are equipped with the information needed to be able to recognize signs of bullying/cyber bullying, harassment (including sexual harassment), hate-bias incidents, hazing, intimidation, and student gender norms. An online student training lesson, entitled “Culture of Respect,” has been developed for students in Grades 6–12. This online training lesson builds on last year’s student module and provides critical information that will help students better recognize the signs of inappropriate behaviors, including the various ways to report alleged/concerning incidents. The training should take approximately 30 minutes to complete and will be accessible to all students via their myMCPS Classroom homepage. All students are expected to complete the Culture of Respect module. Dedicated time will be provided for students during Advisory class on October 18th. Students will receive 2 SSL for completion of this module.

On Wednesday, October 18th during PE and Health classes students will have their 2023-2024 school year pictures taken. In the digital newsletter, you will find information on how to order the pictures that are taken on Wednesday.

Thank you to everyone who supported our Fall Book Fair by purchasing items and/or volunteering your time to support our Media Center staff. While the in-school sale is over, the online store is still open until October 19 at https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/cjms.

This week's newsletter has many opportunities happening in the upcoming weeks. Please take the time to read through them and take advantage.

We look forward to welcoming everyone on Monday into our Cabin John community focused on respect, positive relationships, and resilience.

Have a great evening!

Somer Snider

Tuesday, 10/3:The Girls Softball team had a tremendous start to their season yesterday verse Julius West MS and earned their first victory by the score of 4-1. It was a defensive battle that was highlighted by our girls turning a triple play in the second inning, only to be followed by a double play in third inning. The Lady Cougars almost batted through their entire lineup in the bottom of the third inning when they scored all four of their runs.

The Cougar boy's softball team dominated on the road for their first game against Julius West Middle School. Their high scores were led by 8th grader Nathan Neches and Wilden Nguyen with 4 runs a piece, multiple pop fly catches from 8th grader Josh Manevich, and 2 strike outs in a row to close out a strong inning by 8th Grader Starting pitcher Jackson Cho.

The team was led in the field with great pitching by Aysha Gilmetdinova and spectacular catches in the outfield by Sloane Berk and Senna Lee! The infield was held down by Cameron Stokes, Netah Shekel and Violet Wilner, all who recorded numerous outs! And Alex Markovic caught a superb game behind the plate while communicating well with her teammates! The Lady Cougars return to action on Tuesday at home verse Pyle MS.

The Cougar boys had their first home game against Wood Jr. Middle School. The Cougars started off with a slow start, but with quick adjustments the Cougars came back with the start of the 4th inning with stellar performances from 8th grader Josh Manevich with 4 catches, Wilden Nguyen with 2, Yosi Edery with one, and Double Play made by 7th grader Freddy Sharman. The Cougars closed the game out led by player of the game, 8th grader pitcher, Nathan Neches, with strikeouts and a heavy hitting home run that would send the bases loaded home ending the game 14-9. The Cougars next game will be on the road Tuesday where they face Pyle Middle School.

What Happens When My Bus Is Delayed or Canceled

There is a local and national challenge with recruiting, hiring and retaining bus drivers for school systems and the transportation industry. When a bus driver or attendant is unable to come to work due to illness or unexpected leave, it puts a strain on the system to keep that bus on the road. The MCPS Department of Transportation uses substitute drivers and multiple runs to ensure that it has as many buses as possible on the roads to deliver students to school every day. Canceling a bus route is a last resort.

If your child’s route is delayed or canceled, here is how we let you know:

• Impacted routes are published the day before or the morning of by 6:15 a.m.
• Information published on MCPS website and ConnectEd message is sent to families
• Department of Transportation continues to identify possible drivers for impacted route
• Bus route information dashboard updated every half hour until 9:30 a.m.

Updates for afternoon routes

• Bus route information dashboard updated by 1:30 p.m.
