CMS students showed exceptional effort on the IAR state tests all week! We all celebrated the end of the testing week with a dance. CMS has a dance next Friday, April 12 from 6-8!




CMS students worked hard during IAR this week. They celebrated their week with a dance at the end of the day. Students earned a ticket to the dance for their hard work, and good behavior. Each student's ticket made them eligible for a $25 Walmart gift card. The winners of these gift cards were:
Aubrey Stewart - 7 Red
Sidney Furry - 8 Gold
Jaylee Livingston - 8 Red
Jordan Jackson - 8 Gold
Way to go CMS!


Join CMS for a Hawaiian Themed dance on Friday, April 12th. Dance is from 6:00-8:00 pm in the CMS gym. $5 admission. Concessions wil be available for purchase.

The CMS Trojan Depot is in need of items as the weather is becoming nicer. If you have the means, please take a look at our Wishlist. As always, we thank the Charleston community for its continued support of our students here at CMS.
