CMS' Mirage Ends The Season On A High Note...
CMS Families:
I want to congratulate all of our students who were involved in this past week’s Science Fair. All of our students did an amazing job. A big applause goes out to Zoe Avramidis, grade 5, for being chosen as our winner. Also the following students received Honorable Mention: Rileigh Zacek, Alexis Warren, Sophina Zacek, Sadie Wilbur and Maddox Parente. Best of luck as they look to compete at WPI – way to go guys!
This week, we will be continuing our MCAS testing window with the English Language Arts tests. Our 6th grade students will be testing on Monday and Tuesday, followed by our 7th grade students on Wednesday and Thursday. My message to our students remains the same: Just do your best… I wanted to make sure that the students don’t stress too much and just focus on what they can control. As parents, here are three tips that you can use to help your child prepare to do their best:
1. Have them go to bed early (there’s no homework the night before testing)
2. Make sure your child eats a good breakfast before they leave for school
3. Remind them to just do their best
Our students are awesome and will be ready for whatever comes their way. Additionally, it's important to note these tests are only a small part of defining our school and our students; we have so many great things happening within our middle school that represent opportunities for all students to learn and grow - CMS Rocks!
Wishing everyone an amazing week.
