STEAM School-Wide Assembly: Friday, January 26th
Thanks to your incredible fundraising efforts, CMEA was able to cover the costs of a CME staff-recommended event: an interactive STEAM assembly!
Basically, it will be like our gym has been transformed into a state-of-the-art, hands-on children’s museum focused on STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math). Students will take turns exploring stations that include robots, virtual reality, 3D printing, art, engineering, and more!

We Need Your Help!
To help make this assembly a success, CMEA is in search of volunteers who would be interested in helping run the various stations and activities.
We are also in search of 4 folding tables to borrow for the day. The assembly requires 9, and the school has 5. If you would be interested in allowing the school to borrow a foldable table for the day, please email cmeapto@gmail.com.

Spring Fundraiser Planning
Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students): Ongoing
Watch D.O.G.S. is a program that gives dads the opportunity to spend either a half or whole day in the building with their children. You will help in classrooms and go to lunch and recess with your child.
The purpose of the program:
- To provide positive male role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is essential.
- To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying. All dads are encouraged to be a Watch D.O.G.S. Dad at least once a year.
Upcoming CMEA Events: Ongoing
We are always looking for volunteers for Teacher/Staff Appreciation, our Daughter Event, our Son Event, School Beautification, our Spring Fundraiser, etc. If you would like to volunteer with CMEA in any way, please let us know.
COPPER MESA YEARBOOK
Help us create a memorable yearbook by sharing your pictures with our yearbook committee. This can be at school events, the Spirit Rock, class parties, class field trips, school clubs, etc. Please email photos to coppermesayearbook@gmail.com and include your child’s name and teacher.
KING SOOPERS CARDS
One of our biggest and easiest fundraisers has proven to be King Soopers Cards. In just over a year, our total donation received is typically in excess of $15,000. If you haven’t registered your rewards number (phone number) yet, please do so. It’s quick and easy and a great way to earn funds for our school. This money helps us to pay for teacher and school grants and host some of our events.

- Sign in or register with your King Soopers card or phone number.
- Click on Enroll.
- Search by school code (AB638) or organization name (Copper Mesa Elementary School - CMEA).
