• Name Tags For Dismissal @ CES
  CES is proud to announce that every child will be receiving an end-of-school dismissal tag for their backpack. This tag is  designed to further improve our dismissal process. We will be placing the name tags on your child’s backpack. Here is an image of what a blank backpack tag looks like. Your child’s individual tag will include their typical end-of-day dismissal plan. We ask that you leave the tag on for the remainder of the school year. At the end of the year, we will work with you to evaluate our new system and make adjustments for the coming year. If the tag becomes damaged or is accidentally removed, please do not worry, we can quickly replace it. If you have any questions, please reach out to any of the school administrators.

• CMHS Dismissal and Tardy Policy Reminder:
  DISMISSALS:
  All appointments should be scheduled during non-school time, whenever possible. However, when it is unavoidable that a student be dismissed, parents submit plans for changes for their student by accessing the Pick Up Patrol app through their smartphone or computer. If unable to do this, a parent/guardian can send an email to [email protected].  Students who are not feeling well should be reporting to the school nurse and dismissed through our nurses office at door #3.  If a student is returning to school after being dismissed they should be checking back in with the main office and providing the proper paperwork to excuse their dismissal.

  TARDY TO SCHOOL:
  A student will be considered tardy to school if they arrive in the building and/or homeroom after 7:25 A.M. Administration will monitor student tardy issues on a regular basis. An additional office detention will be issued for every subsequent fifth tardy during the same term. Excused tardiness is limited to documented medical appointments

• Many thanks to those who helped to organize and run the Kindergarten Family Glow Bowling event at Carver Elementary School.  Everyone had a “ball”!
     

• The MS Student Government continues their initiative to raise funds for a number of worth causes including their recent donations of $200 to the Shane McColgan Foundation and $200 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

• Kudos to CMHS Students who opted for community service during one of their WIN Block periods and cleaned up litter by Pond Street with teachers Mrs. Waitner and Mr. Lyman.
