Dear Parents, Students, and Patrons:
For long time Iowans, the past few months has certain-ly been warmer than normal and with Spring Break just around the corner, many people are wondering if we even had a Winter.
Regardless, as in life, school ebbs and flows and students are ready for a 10 day break from school after all that’s gone on the past 8 weeks including taking our annual Iowa Assessments just under 10 days ago.
This issue of the CMS Newsletter contains the January and February “Wildcats of the Week” and “Wildcats of the Month” as well as information about Parent-Teacher Conferences which are this Wednesday and Thursday.
We sincerely hope everyone has a relaxing Spring Break! As always, we sincerely appreciate your support!
Sincerely,
Mr. John W. ElkinPrincipal

PURPOSE & TIME LIMITSThe purpose of P-T Conferences is to communicate to parents the areas their child are excelling in and to give them specific ideas of how to improve upon their child’s performance. Such that, due to time, we respectfully ask that parents limit their time with each teacher to 8-10 minutes and if needed, schedule a separate meeting with the teacher to address specific concerns.
WHAT ELSE1. Your child’s schedule will be provided the night of conferences along with a name/content listing of where each teacher’s room is located as well as a map of the school.2. Due to complications with Infinite Campus, we will also be providing Report Cards on this night.2. We encourage students to come with their parents to P-T Conferences.
