Dear Community Families, What a full and vibrant month March was! Between Parent Conferences, Grandparents Day, the Math Kangaroo competition, the Spring Dance, and Open House, it truly was nonstop. A heartfelt thank you to all CMCS teachers and staff for graciously welcoming families into your classrooms, staying flexible, and keeping everything running smoothly.

Next, our kindergarteners explored the theme of heroism, sharing their own African American heroes. They performed “The Greatest Love of All,” made famous by Whitney Houston, reminding us that power and greatness li...
