🙌 FAITH, LEADERSHIP & COMMUNITY AT COPE MIDDLE SCHOOL! Early this morning, our Cope Middle School FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) student leaders gathered on the patio for See You At The Pole! It was inspiring to see these young leaders standing together in unity for our school, teachers, classmates, and community. We are so proud of their courage, leadership, and heart to make a positive impact both in and outside the classroom! 💙🧡 Way to lead by example, Cougars! 🐾✨ #theCopeDifference #EverythingMatters

💙✅💙 Cope Cougars are READY for math Proficiency Exams!!! 🌈 Ratios, Skittles, and lots of learning in 6th grade. Skittles made their way into Ms. Cole’s math class again!  Sometimes the best way to learn is to make it hands-on-and a little sweet! 💕 ‼️Mrs. Davis' seventh grade math class worked in groups to get ready also! Minds are at work around here!

🐾 Cope has three incredible people to celebrate! 🧡💙 ⭐ Matt Murry — Teacher of the Year Mr. Murry brings history to life and challenges students to go beyond memorizing facts. He wants them to explain their thinking, know the details, and take pride in what they learn. His passion for social studies and high expectations make a difference every day. ⭐ Mady Armitage — New Teacher of the Year Mady brings creativity, warmth, and fresh energy to Cope. Her love of music, reading, and all things creative shines through in the way she connects with students and makes learning feel inviting. We are so glad she is part of our Cougar family! ⭐ Erin Friedlund — Support Staff of the Year Erin brings color, kindness, and a whole lot of personality to Cope. She has a gift for making people feel welcome and cared for, she spreads a little extra joy! The support she gives our school makes a difference every day. Please help us congratulate Matt, Mady, and Erin! We are grateful for the heart each of you brings to Cope. Everything Matters—and so do you! 🐾

CMS United Champions Club Members celebrated International Dot Day today, Sept 15. Based on Peter H. Reynolds' beloved book The Dot, which tells the story of a teacher who encourages a doubting student to "make her mark". Dot Day encourages people of all ages to explore their creativity, be brave, and share their unique talents with the world. Our students had "dot shirts" on while they completed dot activities to celebrate the day! Their smiles lets us know it was all worth it! Everything Matters at Cope!

‼️CMS parents and students:‼️

🎉We have a wonderful opportunity for our students to receive FREE, weekly math tutoring on our campus from 2:30 - 3:30 (after school) each Wednesday for the first semester. However, students must have a ride home; there will not be bus transportation after tutoring each Wednesday. Students must have a way home either in a car pick up or walking home within a one mile radius. You can sign your student up for as many tutoring Wednesday sessions as you are interested in!

If you are interested in having your child tutored, please use this link below to register.
