Hello CCSMS families,

Wow! How is it the last week of the school year!!

Our scholars have taken the assessments this month so seriously and we are so proud of all of their hard work this year.  Thank you to our families for all you have done to encourage their scholarly work and to support their growth.

We are so ready to celebrate with you all this week!

Thanks!!

The CCSMS Admin Team

Here are some tips for who it reach out to with questions, ideas, or concerns:

• If you need an individual meeting with your scholar's teacher please reach out to them directly via email to set up a meeting time or a phone call. Teachers should respond within 24 hours during the work week.  We do not expect them to respond in the evening or on the weekends. They will send an introduction email at the beginning of the semester and their email should be in the course syllabus shared at the beginning of the semester.
  
• If you have questions about PowerSchool, bus transportation, or other front office related matters, please email the front office and someone will respond to you.
• If you have general questions about middle school, Mrs. Carter is the Assistant Principal for middle school at CCSMS, and is always happy to help guide you and answer questions.
• If you have general questions about high school, Mr. Thompson is our Assistant Principal for high school and is ready to help support your scholar's success at CCSMS.
  
• Our school counselors are Mrs. Domin for high school and Ms. Manigault is serving our middle school scholars this year with Ms. Nguyen.  They can help with course selection, adjusting to middle school or high school, and other resources your scholar may need to be successful. Mr. Bert Hudnall, our college advisor,  is an experienced and well-respected and will work to assist with developing self-sustaining college counseling programs. 
• If you have questions about your scholar's IEP or 504 plan, Mrs. Cannon can assist you.
• For attendance, records, address/email/phone number updates, Operoo, admissions, and enrollment, please reach out to Mrs. Woolum. 
• Mrs. Frasier, our lead principal, can assist you if an issue is not resolved at the teacher or administrative team level. She handles all of our day to day operations.
• Mrs. Carmichael, our Executive Principal and CEO, can assist  you if you have an issue you need to discuss that impacts the overall functioning of the school.
• If you have an appeal of an administrator decision, there is a formal process to bring that issue to the board. You can reach the board members to start that process.

Some simple ways to get involved:

• • Look for Sign Ups coming in September and we look forward to meeting you at Meet the Teacher Night later this month.
    

  • Join us online on Facebook

  • Link those Harris Teeter cards to our school – our #7617 and add CCSMS to your to your Publix account.

  • Donate backpacks, uniform clothing, tissues, classroom supplies, and gift cards when you can. They can be dropped off in the front office and will be put to use based on the priorities of the day.

This is a reminder to please use the designated drop-off area at the back of the school in the car loop only.
