AAPI SCHOOL WIDE ASSEMBLY

CELEBRATING MONGOLIA

A big THANK YOU goes out to Itgel, mother of Jessica (4th Gr.) and Justin (K), and Thanatcha, mother of Tanutam and Anupon.  Itgel organized an AMAZING Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month Celebration! It was an incredible and exciting show! Thanatcha, mother of Tanutam and Anupon, passed out the most delicious goodies,  Mango Sticky Rice and Thai custard with Sticky Rice, provided by the Multicultural Committee.

What an amazing celebration of the Mongolian Heritage! After watching a brief video about the Mongolian land, culture, and people, students were treated to a variety of performing artists. First, we listened to beautiful traditional Mongolian music with the Morin Khuur, a two-stringed fiddle dating back to the 13th & 14th centuries. We witnessed the incredible strength and power of the Mongolian woman as the performer wowed us with her amazing  archery and contortionist skills. We also enjoyed watching Amy perform traditional Mongolian dances . And last, but certainly not least, our very own CMCS students modeled traditional Mongolian hats and deels. If you were there, you know this was a stunning display of the Mongolian culture! Thank you Itgel, Jessica, and Justin for sharing with us all!

VALET RULES



    For the SAFETY of your child and ALL children and parents at CMCS, if you are driving your child to school you MUST follow these valet rules. 
    • Arrive at CMCS between 7:30 and 8:00
    • Enter through the gate on the EAST side of the school.
    • Drive along the left curb.  The right curb is a bus lane whether or not the buses have arrived.
    • Wait patiently in a single file line along the left curb of the driveway.
    • When a valet volunteer or LAUSD staff directs you, turn right at the parking lot and pull up to the Valet Curb.  There can be a maximum of 3 cars at the Valet Curb.  
    • Under no circumstances can you park with your child and walk them through the parking lot. If, especially during these first weeks of school, you want to walk your child to the front gate, you MUST drop your child at the Valet Curb and then park your car.  Your child can wait for you near the valet volunteers on the bench by the Valet Curb.
    • When you arrive at the Valet Curb, your child should be ready to exit the car from the passenger side of the vehicle.  IF a passenger side exit from your vehicle is unavailable, your child must wait until a valet volunteer opens the driver side door and escorts them in front of your car onto the curb.
    • Under no circumstances should the driver exit the vehicle.
    • Do not pull around cars in the valet line including at the Valet Curb.  The line is single file from the east gate entrance  through to the west gate exit.  Please wait your turn to drop off your child and to exit campus.
    • FINALLY, be patient and kind.  The valet volunteers and LAUSD staff are there for the safety of your children.  Please treat them, the children, and the other drivers with respect.
