CMS Connects presents Math Night 2019
The evening will begin with a hot dog supper in the gym lobby. When everyone has had an opportunity to get their food and eat, administrators and teachers will briefly review our school's math philosophy and our school's math data, share media presentations on successful math mindsets, and then lead guests to grade level breakout sessions led by teachers and students. The group will come back together to close the evening with a time for a final activity, questions and comments, and closing remarks.
In order to plan for food, we ask that you click on the link below (if you have not already done so) and complete the attached form to let us know how many persons are attending. We look forward to this evening in which we continue to build the capacity in our students to become better math students now and for years to come!

Attendance Matters
A student has perfect attendance when he or she has no absences from school, no late check-ins, and no early check-outs. Field trips or school-sponsored activities do not count against perfect attendance. The charts below show the Attendance Data through last Friday as well as the number of students who have perfect attendance. There will be a celebration in December for all students who have maintained perfect attendance prior to the winter break.
Letters have gone out describing the referral process to the Jefferson County Family Court's Early Warning process for those who fall into the at-risk column. Families, please have your students at school at school and on-time each day!
