Happy Sunday Cavalier Families!

We hope you are having a fantastic weekend so far!

This week, our school is focusing on the value of effort—the dedication, persistence, and determination that drive our students to achieve their best. Effort is what turns challenges into opportunities and mistakes into learning experiences.

We encourage our students to approach every task—whether in the classroom, on the field, or at home—with a growth mindset, understanding that hard work and perseverance lead to improvement. As parents, you can support this by celebrating the process, not just the outcome. Praise their persistence, encourage them to keep trying, and remind them that learning happens through effort.

Let’s work together to reinforce the message that effort matters and that success comes to those who give their best each day. Thank you for your continued support in helping our students “Make It Count!”

We are looking forward to a Cav-tastic week with your students!

The Counseling Office will be doing small group counseling sessions during every grade level lunch on Wednesdays in Room 211. If you would like to your child to participate, please encourage them to get a permission slip from the counseling office or print & fill out the slip below. Our primary focus is effective communication & conflict resolution. For the sessions to be effective, the groups are kept to a maximum of 15 students. New groups begin every 6 weeks to ensure more students are able to participate. Have your student sign-up today!

Please notice the drop off and pick up areas for cars at CPMS. For the safety of our students, please do not drop off in the bus loop.

Parents/Guardians should only be driving in the yellow area indicated on the map.

The red area is for buses only. Parents who enter the red area are putting students and staff at risk as there is limited visibility when buses are present.
