Dear Families, Students, and Staff,
Welcome back to the 2024-25 school year! As we embark on this exciting new chapter, I’m thrilled to see our students return to campus, filled with energy and enthusiasm. Our staff has been working diligently to ensure we are ready for a successful year, with a strong focus on building positive relationships and fostering a welcoming environment for all. We know that when students feel connected and supported, they thrive academically and socially. Together, we will continue to cultivate a school culture that prioritizes respect, kindness, and collaboration, and we are excited to have your support as partners in this journey.
This year, we are proud to continue implementing our school-wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) system. Our goal is to create a positive learning environment by recognizing and reinforcing good behavior, while also providing clear expectations and consistent support for all students. Through PBIS, we are not only promoting academic success but also helping students develop the social and emotional skills needed to be responsible and respectful members of our school community.
In addition, we are committed to strengthening our relationships with parents and the broader community. By working together, we can ensure that every child feels valued and supported both in and out of the classroom. I encourage you to stay connected with us through school events, Classroom DoJo, our social media accounts, and other opportunities to engage with our staff. Let’s make this a great year—one filled with learning, growth, and strong partnerships!
Sincerely,
CMHS Admin Team
This year, we will be offering monthly ‘Keystone Conversations’ in an effort to provide our parents and guardians with information they feel would be most helpful to assist in closing the gap between home and school. We would love to hear from parents / guardians to know what training or information they would like to receive. We would like all parents / guardians to complete this short form to let us know what you need.

ATTENDANCE MATTERS
We're so excited to have our schools filled with students and teachers where we can all grow and learn together!
There is so much awesomeness that can be achieved when we're present at school. If something is getting in the way of your student coming to school, please reach out to your student's teacher, school counselor, district social worker, or school nurse. We want to make sure that your student is receiving whatever supports necessary to help them be successful.
REMNDER: As we start a new school year, excuses need to be turned in within 3 days of an absence. Use your school's attendance email to make sure that the excuse notes get turned in on time.
