Check out this week's lineup for sporting events in Cougar Nation.

Picture day is almost here! Tuesday, September, 15th will be picture day at CMS. You can order online and prepay by visiting www.leonards.com/photoprepay and use the access code C839186 .

Please be aware that during light rain, we will not hold students at CMS. However, if they wish to remain until the rain subsides, they are always welcome. During heavy storms and lightning, we will hold walkers and bike riders here. You may then pick up your child in our car rider line, or wait for us to release them once the storm passes. If we decide it is not safe for them to walk or bike home, a text message alert will go out from the school.

Bus Safety Reminder
As our students settle into a new school year, we ask everyone in our community to take a few extra moments to help keep them safe as they travel to and from school.
Whether you’re driving through a neighborhood, approaching a school bus stop, or traveling near a school campus, please stay alert. Slow down, eliminate distractions, and watch carefully for students who may be walking, riding bicycles, or crossing the street.
For drivers:
• Stop for school buses when the stop arm is extended and the red lights are flashing.
• Obey posted school zone speed limits.
• Never pass a stopped school bus unless permitted by law.
• Stay alert for students at bus stops, crosswalks, and near roadways, especially during the busy morning and afternoon hours.
For parents and students:
• Arrive at bus stops a few minutes early and wait a safe distance from the roadway.
• Cross the street only when instructed by the bus driver, and always look left, right, and left again before crossing.
• Use designated crosswalks whenever possible and never cross behind a school bus.
• Stay aware of your surroundings by keeping phones and headphones put away while walking.
The start and end of the school day are some of the busiest times on our roads. A little extra patience and attention can help ensure every student arrives safely at school and returns home safely each day.
Thank you for doing your part to help keep our students safe.
