Hello CMS Families!

As we approach the final stretch of the school year, we would like to emphasize the significance of school engagement and consistent attendance during the upcoming 4th quarter. This period is critical for your child's academic success and preparation for the next grade level.

The 4th quarter is often when students complete important projects, participate in final assessments, and consolidate their learning from the entire year. Regular attendance ensures that your child does not miss out on essential instruction, feedback, and the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding.

As always, please contact your student’s grade level counselor with any questions or concerns.

Go Canes!
