CMS Open House

Thanks to all of you that came by and visited tonight.  Looks like 2012-2013 is going to be another great year at CMS.  I appreciate your patience while waiting to visit my classroom.  I never get to talk with everyone as much as I would like. Please e-mail me if you have any questions at all.  Remember to bring your Summer Math Review packet on Monday, August 20.  We will review on Tuesday and take a test on Wednesday.  I will use this test and a STAR math test to determine who might need extra help during the school day.  Please show all your work and do your BEST on the test Wednesday.

Reminders for 7th grade:
1.  Go to homeroom when the 7:40 bell rings on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.  All other days go to first period at 7:40 am.
2. Lockers will be sold on Monday, August 20 for $12.  It will take a few days to master getting your locker open so don't worry if you can't get it the first time.
3.  You can put money into your lunch account any day.  Bring any free and reduced lunch forms back as soon as possible.
4. Go by the schedule on the colored sheet, NOT the white one.
5.  Bring back the Student Handbook signed, front and back.
6.  Before you are issued a laptop, your parents must sign a form in the office.  Take good care of your laptop.
7.  Ask your teachers or someone in the office if you need anything.
8.  You might want to bring a snack for break the first couple of days.  The snack machines will be VERY crowded.
9.  Bring only what you need for your locker.  You don't want to clutter it up.  You can decorate, but no stickers. 
10.  Our CMS motto:  Work Hard, Act Right, Have Fun!

8th Grade:
I sure am looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday.  Missed you all.  With lots of hard work again, we should be on track for a successful year.  Let's go 8 - 0 and it will start at Cedar Ridge on October 27.

Math Team Parent Meeting on Monday, August 27 at 6:30 pm in the library.  See you there!
