Head Lice 101 What You Should Know
About Head Lice

Recently, students had the opportunity to learn about the moon.  Three stations were set up for students to learn about the moon and its surface.  The highlight of the program was the lunar disk on loan from NASA. The six Apollo missions that landed astronauts on the Moon returned a collection of rocks and sediment samples weighing 382 kilograms and consisting of more than 2,000 separate samples.  The lunar disk contained small samples of lunar material. Descriptions of the samples were discussed. Students were able to use a digital microscope to get a closer look at the samples.

It is hard to believe, but the end of the 1st Quarter is on Friday, October 12th. CMS will hold our end of the quarter awards assembly during Cardinal Block (12:08-12:45) on Thursday, October 11th. Two students from each grade will be awarded Cardinal Effort Awards and we will have our quarterly T.H.I.N.K. Cardinal Pride drawing.

It's hard to believe, but we are already at the mid-quarter and that means Parent-Teacher Conferences (PTC)! CMS will host PTC on Thursday, September 13th from 2-8 PM in the CMS Gym. CMS will have a 1:30 dismissal on that day. The rest of the district will have a regular schedule. 

In an effort to reduce lines and minimize wait times we are asking that parents try to attend at the following times:

2:00-4:30 - 5th and 7th grade parents

4:30-5:00 - Teacher Dinner Break

5:00-8:00 - 6th and 8th grade parents

Greetings,
Chadron Public Library will be continuing in the NASA@MyLibrary  program for another grant cycle! We are one of 75 libraries across the nation chosen to participate and we are looking forward to the next year. 
In October Chadron Public Library will be wrapping up this program year with a celebration of International Observe the Moon Night (IOMN) on Saturday October 20th, 2018. NASA's goal for IOMN is to promote interest in lunar studies and to get the public out observing the night sky.

Parents,

Below is the assessment schedule for the Fall MAP Growth Reading, Math, Science and Language Arts tests. The data that we get from the fall assessments informs teachers of specific areas where students need intervention and enrichment.  The benchmark data also informs students when they set their annual growth goals with their teachers.
