🤖 Mission Impossible? Not for the CMS Tigers! 🐯🏆

We are beaming with pride over here at Claxton Middle School! 🐯💛

On Wednesday, April 15th, 12 CMS students and Mrs. Stephanie Myers traveled to Mercer University in Macon, GA, to compete in their first-ever FIRA USA Robotics Competition. FIRA is an international robotics competition held in countries around the world, and this year's challenge was Category: Mission Impossible. Students received one challenge in the morning and another challenge in the afternoon, and had 1 1/2 hours to prepare before competing.

Claxton Middle School sent three teams, and every one of them brought home hardware. 🏆

🐐 VEX GOATs
Carter Perrin, Beau Blizzard, Jayson Saylor & Samuel Fleurmont
🥇 1st Place – Mission Impossible: Hardware

💻 VEX Team
Christopher Dominguez, Zachery Valentine, DJ Mikell & Cade Tucker
🥇 1st Place – Mission Impossible: Software
🥉 3rd Place – Mission Impossible: Hardware

🤖 CMS Robotics Team
Matthew Griffin, Luz Cruz, Brystol Rhiner & Ava Williams
🥈 2nd Place – Mission Impossible: Hardware
🥉 3rd Place – Mission Impossible: Software

That's 5 awards total — at their very first competition!

Not only that, but the Deans and Professors at Mercer were so impressed with our students' professionalism and collaboration that they were invited to eat lunch in the Mercer University Dining Hall. (We hear they thoroughly enjoyed it! 😄) Our Tigers were also specifically praised for how well they worked together; they truly mastered the art of collaboration.

And the best news of all? The CMS Robotics Team may have the opportunity to compete at the FIRA RoboWorld Cup and Summit 2026 in Markham, Ontario, Canada, in July 2026! 🇨🇦🤖

These students made the impossible… possible. 🚀

Stay tuned — this is just the beginning for the CMS Robotics Team. 🐯🔧

📚🍕📐 Learning fractions has never been so delicious! Ms. Tanner and Mrs. Garcia’s 3rd grade math students recently became pizza restaurant owners for the day. Each student filled a custom pizza order—like ¼ cheese, ¼ black olives, ¼ pepperoni, and ¼ green peppers—using hands‑on fraction models. This fun, real‑world activity helped students truly understand fractions while having a blast!

🦆 New Five-Star Accommodations at the PFA: Ag Mechanics Builds Duck Boxes! 🪵

Our Ag Mechanics students are officially helping the local wildlife move into some prime real estate! The class completed and personally installed custom-built duck boxes at the Evans County Public Fishing Area (PFA).

The students had the privilege of working alongside Caleb Mills, a Wildlife Technician at the PFA, to learn exactly where and how these boxes should be placed to best support local nesting waterfowl. This project was the perfect blend of classroom skill and environmental stewardship.

What the Tigers Accomplished:

Precision Woodworking: Building durable, weather-resistant duck boxes designed for the elements.

Wood Preservation: Applying techniques to ensure the structures last for many seasons to come.

Field Installation: Getting hands-on experience in the habitat, ensuring the boxes were securely and correctly positioned.

Seeing their hard work move from the shop to the water was a proud moment for these students. A huge Thank You to Caleb Mills and the Evans County PFA team for letting our Tigers play a part in local conservation! 🐯🖤💛

Mrs Phillips’ 2nd graders wanted to spread some love & appreciation for those working throughout our school & are often behind the scenes.
