CMS Enrollment is open!
Enrollment for the 2021-2022 school year is available NOW! Existing CMS families who complete their enrollment packet this week will receive priority registration for the upcoming school year. Due to increased interest and a larger number of students in our lower elementary program the Eagles classroom will be impacted. At this time we have more families interested than spots available in Eagles, in which case a wait list will be formed. In light of this we are encouraging all families interested in finalizing their enrollment to submit their enrollment packet and deposit at your earliest convenience. Your child’s spot in the program is finalized once your packet is received and deposit has been processed.
We hope your family will be joining us for the 2021-2022 school year!
Crazy Hair Day – Friday 3/12
We are very excited to have crazy hair day on Friday, March 12th! Students are encouraged to join in on the fun and come to school with their craziest hair!
Crazy hair day is all about having fun!!
Virtual Parent-Teacher Conferences – April 8 & 9
Conferences are a wonderful time to hear from your teachers about your student’s progress and school experience. On Wednesday, April 7 your student’s report card will be available on your RenWeb parent portal. You will be receiving an email in the next few weeks regarding time slots to sign up for your conference. There will not be school on these days. Child Care will be available, however you must sign up in advance. There will be no drop-in’s.

Parking Lot Safety Reminders
When exiting the school parking lot during arrivals and dismissals please turn right onto Monte Vista Road.
We truly appreciate our families for your support and partnership and working with us as a team!
It is imperative to keep an open dialogue with us regarding illnesses and travel. We are all in this together and want to keep our students, families, staff and school healthy to the extent possible. Please let us know if you plan to travel or if anyone in your household has been exposed to, has COVID or has symptoms.
Please notify the office if your student will not be in class or is sick. Should your child be sick all families need to inform the office and we will provide further mandated guidance. When our students are sick we want them to rest so virtual class is not permitted during illnesses.
