Excellence in Education Every Day Counts! • Focusing on high academic achievement, academic growth and rigor for ALL children • Building meaningful relationships with ALL children • Creating a safe, orderly and supportive environment for ALL children • Providing high quality customer service to ALL families

  6. Excellence in EducationEvery Day Counts! Current State of CHMS • Current enrollment of 1760; 600 in Grade 6 • Performance Composite 83.1% • Met all Federal AMO targets – CHMS has more than any other CMS school • Growth is TBD – 2013 growth was 3rd in CMS and 11th in NC

  7. Excellence in EducationEvery Day Counts! Beyond Academics • Extra-curricular opportunities – athletics (grade 7 & 8), student-led clubs, OM, Chess, Math Counts, NAL, Science Olympiad • Students need to watch AM announcements for information on all extra-curricular activities and events • Excellent elective department and diverse opportunities

  8. Excellence in EducationEvery Day Counts! Your Child’s Daily Schedule • Arrive between 8:45am – 9:10am (tardy if not in seat by 9:15am) **please do not drop off early • First Block 90 minutes – Announcements then Academic Core • Second Block 90 minutes – Academic Core + 25 minute lunch • Enrichment 30 minutes – Teen Time and Cavalier Time • Third Block 85 minutes – Academic Core • Fourth Block 85 minutes – Electives • We dismiss at 4:15pm

  9. Excellence in EducationEvery Day Counts! Helpful Hints • Car pool lines are very long. If you have an assigned bus, it is best to use CMS transportation. PM line begins to form at 3:30pm. • When you need your child early for a doctor’s appointment, send a note in the AM to the office and your child will be waiting for you when you arrive. • Have your ID for early dismissals and make sure all potential “family helpers” are on your blue card. • Blue cards will come home on the first day along with the PTO pack – read this packet carefully as it contains lots of helpful info along with school fees.

  10. Excellence in EducationEvery Day Counts! Helpful Hints • We only do all-calls for classroom “deliveries” at 10:45am and 2:45pm. • If you bring lunch for your child, find out their lunch time as we ask you to deliver it to the cafeteria – you cannot bring food for other children. • Sign up (on the CHMS website under school resources) for the weekly Courier – it will keep you up-to-date on events. • Check teacher websites and student agendas as many of your classroom questions can be answered here. You can access all websites from the Faculty link on our CHMS page. • Questions and concerns – always start with the teacher. The grade level counselor, Ms. Babao (pronounced Buh Bow’) schedules conferences.
