Parent University Presentations

The second “Parent University,” topics relevant to CMS and CLSD families, took place this past week . The first topic, “School Tech - What the Heck,” was presented by the CMS Technology Team of Mrs. Diehm, Mrs. Holub and Mrs. Scrheffler. The second topic, “Internet Safety,” featured Mr. Richard Warner from the Geauga County Prosecutors Office, Mr. Jason Elam, CLSD SRO and Mr. Adam Tomco, CMS Principal. A big thank you to G-TV for recording the two presentations for parents to view who were unable to attend. Click the links below to watch the presentations.

4th Grade CogAT

4th graders will be taking the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) during the week of November 7-11, 2022. The Ohio-required whole-grade testing screens all students for potential gifted identification in Superior Cognitive Ability and Creative Thinking Ability, and it also provides information about students' instruction strengths and needs. Following the screening, individual student results will be sent home with your child. If you have questions about the assessment, contact megan.kinney@chardonschools.org.

Unity Day

On Thursday, October 20th, students at CMS will be participating in UNITY DAY! We ask students to join staff members as we all dress in ORANGE to UNITE AGAINST BULLYING. We want to see orange clothes, coats, hats, headbands, nails, accessories... you name it! We believe no child should ever experience bullying and want to unite our students and staff as allies and upstanders. For more information about Unity Day and how you can celebrate and join us at home, please visit the PACERS website. *CMS is celebrating one day after the national Unity Day
