CMS friends and family!
The short week had a big impact. To say it was moving to see how many people wore blue on Thursday is an understatement. It may feel like a small gesture, but to our student and his family, it meant a lot. Thank you for helping to bring smiles and joy to CMS and beyond.
On the topic of beyond, I will be off campus and away from email from 10/22 until 10/27. Please reach out to Dr. Salas (ksalas@cohassetk12.org) if you have any questions or concerns during that time.
Have a great weekend, and be well!
John / Mr. Scopelleti

South Shore Tech Open House
I am biased, since I worked there for 15 years, but South Shore Tech is a great option for high school. You can learn more at their Open House, which happens on Saturday, November 7th, from 10am - 1pm. You can register and find more information here.

A Scoop from Scop
As part of our district's work to foster L.I.T. (love, inclusion, and trust) in our schools, I add a L.I.T. quote to our morning announcements every Friday. Here's the L.I.T. quote for today:
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced. -- James Baldwin
