Dear CCSMS Families and Scholars,

Welcome Spring!! Congratulations to our Riptide Band for a Superior Rating last week! We are looking forward to the Spring Concert on Thursday, April 30th!

We had a great start to Quarter 4 last week. Please encourage scholars to ask for additional help from their teachers when needed. High School schedules  tutoring and content review during Riptime each week and there are supports available in middle school. 

MAP Assessments for our middle school scholars start on Monday with our 8th graders. If you have a scholar in 8th grade, please help us by checking to make sure their Chromebook is plugged in and charging tonight and in their backpack in the morning. 

Thank you, 

The CCSMS Admin Team
