Hello CCSMS Families,

First, congratulations to the Class of 2024! We are so proud of all of their accomplishments and know they will have a positive impact on their community in the future. Thank you to everyone who supported their success and helped us make the events this past week a huge success.

This week there are a lot of moving parts during STEMester.  Please give our staff a little grace as they help scholars, families, and each other navigate the week.

•  For any scholars with makeup exams, please remember to help your scholar prioritize their sleep each evening. We know when they arrive at school well rested they do better and try harder on end of year assessments. Plug in electronics for charging in another room and turn off other electronic entertainment early.
  
• Please help your scholar arrive to school on time this week and ready for STEMester with the items needed.
  
• Please make sure to review any communication from teachers or administrators about make up test days, field trips, meetings, and other important items.  Please reach out to teachers with questions or to set up a call or a meeting to discuss any areas of concern.
• Please note the times for the events, expos, and awards ceremonies in the dates above.
  

Please remember to take a look at the calendar for the 2024-25 school year. There may be some minor additions, but this is based on the CCSD calendar. The first day of school for next school year is Tuesday, August 13th. We will have our "Walk your Schedule" event for returning scholars on Monday, August 12th from 4pm to 6pm that day.

Sincerely,

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. Their email should be in the course syllabus sent home last week.
• If you have questions about logging into 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, Mrs. Clark is our Interim Assistant Principal for high school this year while Mr. Thompson is away serving our country in the National Guard.
• Our school counselors are Mrs. Domin for high school and Ms. Nguyen for middle school.  They can help with course selection, adjusting to middle school or high school, and other resources your scholar may need to be successful.
• 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 Andrea 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, can assist  you if you have an issue you need to discuss that impacts the overall functioning of the school.
• 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 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.
