CMS Counselor's Corner:
As we approach the holiday season, it’s important to take a moment to reflect on all
that we have to be grateful for and how we can give back to others. This month, we’ll be
focusing on gratitude and community service, encouraging students to appreciate the
good in their lives and to think about how they can make a positive impact on others.

As you make plans for this week, please remember there is no school on Tuesday as our campus is a designated voting site. School will resume on Wednesday.

Mr. Zozaya, CMS spanish and explorations teacher, created a model of a Day of the Dead celebration, which was introduced by Spanish colonizers in the 16th century. Our English Language students learned and then shared their knowledge about Dia delos Muertos. Check out the table that was set up in the library! It was a great way to introduce and blend cultures together for students to view and experience!
50s day for 6th grade is on Monday but if your student chooses not to dress in 50s attire or you have a 7th and 8th grade student you may participate in our home basketball game spirit day!
