A note from the principal
Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
For years, our PTO has held an Art to Remember fundraiser. You might see this come home. The items you can order are special family keepsakes. You can also order a tile to hang in the school. We have them up in the hallway around our inner structure by the classrooms. Take a look at them next time you are at CMUE. Some of you parents may even have made one when you were a student here.

February's Gifts
February, you’re sometimes cold and sometimes quite unsettled.
If one is making plans indeed, one often feels quite nettled.
You upset everything with rain and snow.
With all your sleet and your ice, a person cannot know.
But one thing we are certain of, dear month of oddest mood.
You bring us lovely holidays, so we will not be rude.
You will bring us Washington’s birthday, you bring us Lincoln’s too.
You give us good St. Valentine’s- What more could one month do?
So we will smile when you get mixed with snow and rain together.
We’ll simply wink and laugh and say, “It’s February weather!”
And when the cold sleet turns to ice and down we slip and fall,
We’ll laugh again and shout we’re glad you’ve come to make a call!
