STEM Family Event at CMU
Lockdown/ALICE Drill
Our first Lockdown/ALICE drill of the year will be on Monday, October 23. Each year we have three practice drills to teach students and staff how to respond in the event of an emergency. We know these can be very scary for students, so we try to teach them/prepare them hoping we never have to go through a situation.
Before the drill, our teachers will read the book, I am Not Scared, I am Prepared, Because I Know ALICE.
Dental Screening
Please be on the lookout for Information regarding the Health Department Dental Screening that is scheduled for October 24. You can sign your child(ren) up by returning the paper form or online at www.MySchoolDentist.com.
Please contact the office if you have any questions or concerns at 989-463-1012.
Speech Universal Screening
Our speech pathologists are implementing a new process by offering speech screening for all students. Your child brought home a consent form on Friday in their orange folder. If you would like your child to have a speech screening completed, please sign the consent form and send back to your child's teacher.
APS App/Rooms
Please make sure you are using and checking the APS app, Rooms. This is the way your teacher will communicate with you throughout the year about all the great things going on in your classroom.
Also, make sure to turn on notification!

School/District/PTO updates
Building Expectations
As part of our building expectations, students earn Panther Paws throughout the day when they are following their ROARS and Volume Level Expectations. Each week we focus on a different area of the building. This week our focus is on Bus Expectations.
Mrs. Hancock will also introduce the Love Spot from the Little Spots of Emotion book series.
At the end of the week, Mrs. Hancock and Sunny complete a Panther Paw drawing. A student from each classroom is drawn as the Panther Paw student of the week and they are able to choose a prize from Mrs. Hancock's prize box.
