Message From Mrs. Robertson
Greeting CMES families!
Term two is coming to a close next Friday and it is time to check those grades on last time, turn in any missing assignments and reach out to teachers for any additional support before report grades are finalized. We continue to have student help available to assist with completing assignments and developing understanding of the instructional that has occurred so far this school year.
November is an exciting month of us at CMES! We will be celebrating American Education week November 16-20. We have spirit week planned, mystery classroom readers from within FCPS and other surprises. In addition, I would like to challenge students, families and staff to share what you are thankful for throughout the month of November. Join me in posting your thankfulness on the PTA FB page or Twitter. (use @CMESLions) Each post will be entered in a drawing for a chance to win special recognition in the weekly Lion Ledger. I am looking forward to seeing all of your posts!!
Yours in education,
Kimberly Robertson

These sessions have been structured in a drop-in format. Students may enter and exit as their needs are met anytime within each session.
