Applying to Private School?
Each year, we have several families apply to area private schools. Please abide by the following guidelines for transcript and recommendation requests:
- Requests should be made at least 10 business days in advance of the due date. We cannot guarantee on-time arrival of documents unless this amount of time is given.
- Please provide documents pre-filled with student/parent information and signatures according to application directions. We cannot complete documentation unless all required information by the applicant is filled out.
- Please provide the appropriate number of addressed and stamped envelopes. Transcripts require a 9 x 12 envelope with approximately $2.00 in postage.
- All recommendations by school staff are confidential. We will not return copies of these documents to the student or parent. All confidential documentation will be sent to the school according to application directions. If the school requires an online application, CMS has no way of monitoring the completion or timely arrival of the application.
- Please sign the attached RELEASE of INFORMATION form allowing CMS staff to share information with the private school.
We appreciate your understanding of the above guidelines. We process several applications each year which requires that we have a process in place to honor requests in a timely manner.
If you have questions about student records, please contact the counseling office at 470-254-8332.

CMS PTA Holiday staff luncheon
SCREENAGERS: Growing Up in the Digital Age, a documentary about the biggest parenting issue of our time.
When: January 15th. 6:30 pm, RHS Auditorium
This popular documentary has been shown in many schools in the North Fulton area and around the country. Teens and their screens are inextricably linked and we just aren't certain what long term effects of this will have on their mind, body and spirits. Join us for the screening of this important documentary and stay for a short conversation.
Please see the link below to RSVP and receive a ticket to bring with you. Kids are welcome to attend. The event is FREE but in order to ensure everyone has a seat, we require the ticket upon arrival. This link also includes a trailer for the movie.
