February was Kindness Month at CMS! 💙🐾

Our CMS Cougars focused on identifying acts of kindness to help erase hate and spread positivity. Students also created appreciation notes for all CMS staff members and painted Kindness Rocks with uplifting messages to hide around our neighborhoods and community.

If you find one, it’s a little reminder from a CMS Cougar to brighten your day! 💫

CMS Celebrated Read Across America Day on Thursday by participating in "Drop Everything and Read". Our students and staff lined the hallways with a book and read silently, well mostly silently, for 10 minutes! A couple of our 8th grade boys kicked off the event over the intercom:
“Drop Everything and Read”
Ayo, ayo, what’s that sound?
It’s a reading takeover going down! 📚
Freeze those pencils, stop that chatter —
This is one emergency that totally matters!
Drop everything — (no, not your chair!)
Just grab a book and head out there!
Line up proud in the hallway scene,
We’re about to get quiet… like a ninja team. 🥷
For ten whole minutes — yes, ten,
No talking, no whispering, not even “when?”
Just pages flipping, brains on fire,
Reading takes us higher and higher!
So grab that book, don’t delay —
It’s Drop Everything and Read Day!
Mic drop… quietly. 🎤
