📣 CMS School Spirit Alert! 📣
Last Friday, the energy at CMS was off the charts as we gathered for our latest Pep Rally! It was an afternoon full of celebration, laughter, and some seriously friendly competition.
⚾️ Celebrating Our 8th Grade Stars 🏃♂️
We took a moment to honor the hard work and dedication of our:
8th Grade Baseball Players
8th Grade Track & Field Team
Congratulations on a fantastic season! We are so proud of how you’ve represented our school on the field and the track. Once a Tiger, always a Tiger! 🐾
🎮 Game Time Highlights
The gym floor stayed busy with some classic CMS shenanigans:
Chicken Basketball: The rivalry continues! Our students went head-to-head against the teachers in a high-stakes (and very squeaky) game of Chicken Basketball. 🐥🏀
Ships & Sails: The students showed off their speed and listening skills in a massive game of Ships and Sails. It was chaotic in the best way possible! ⛴️🌊
Thank you to all the staff and students who made this rally such a blast. Let’s carry this momentum through the rest of the semester!

⚖️📏 Measuring Up in Math! 📏⚖️
Big learning happened in Mrs. Kelly's kindergarten classroom! We kicked off our first measurement lesson by exploring weight—comparing objects to see which were heavy and which were light.
There was so much curiosity, thoughtful discussion, and hands‑on fun as students began building their understanding of measurement. Learning through exploration makes it even more exciting! 🧠✨

🎭🐻 Our 2nd graders had an amazing day on their field trip to Georgia Southern University! Students enjoyed watching a live performance of Winnie the Pooh and loved experiencing the arts outside the classroom.
After the show, everyone enjoyed lunch together and had a blast playing and relaxing at Mill Creek Park 🌳☀️. It was a day full of smiles, fun, and special memories! 💛📚

📐 Engineering Excellence: Polynomials at Work 💻
In Mr. Transue’s Advanced Algebra class, students are learning that polynomials are the building blocks of the world around us—including our favorite theme park rides!
To successfully complete their roller coaster project, students had to use graphing technology to create a "blueprint" of their track. They analyzed the peaks, valleys, and intercepts of their functions to predict how a marble would travel. The true test came during construction, where they had to account for real-world variables like friction and gravity.
Whether they were tackling the Vertical Loop or ensuring a marble survived a high-speed valley, these Tigers proved that they have the grit and the mathematical mind to solve complex engineering problems.

🚦 Life is Full of Choices!
On Friday, April 17, our CMS 8th graders stepped into the Teen Maze, an interactive, life-sized "game of life" designed to show students the real-world consequences of the decisions they make.
What is Teen Maze?
It’s not just a path through a gym—it's an experiential learning event where students navigate various stations representing life choices. From education and career paths to the legal and health consequences of risky behaviors, the "Maze" provides a safe environment for students to see how one decision can change their entire future.
Our students walked away with a better understanding of:
The Power of Choice: Seeing firsthand how positive decisions lead to success.
Real-World Consequences: Navigating the "legal" and "medical" hurdles of risky actions.
Future Planning: Exploring graduation and career options.
🌟 A Huge Thank You!
This impactful day wouldn't have been possible without the incredible leadership and coordination of our community partners. A special shout-out to:
Kristy Mock, Executive Director of Evans County Family Connection
Ambi Bess, Coordinator for the South East Health District
A special thanks also goes out to our guest speaker, Candice Bacon, and her platform "I Made It Through," with the message to our students that they can make it through hard times too.
Thank you for investing in our students and helping them navigate the road to success! 🎓✨
