CME BLAST

Hello wonderful CME Community!!

We are officially rounding the corner into our final month of school! April has been a fantastic month of growth, and as we look toward May, I am making a conscious effort to slow down and truly enjoy these happy days leading up to summer. I hope you all find moments to do the same!

To celebrate our year of learning, we have many exciting activities planned. We want every student to be part of these celebrations, and the best way to ensure that is by staying rooted in our PRIDE skills. By keeping our routines 'business as usual' and showing kindness and respect to everyone, our students can earn their way into these special events. Let's finish strong, stay focused, and celebrate the amazing community we’ve built together!

With gratitude,

Candice

Girl Scout Troop 68088 is bringing the Copper Mesa garden back to life and we'd love your help!

Please join us for one (or both!) of our upcoming volunteer days as we clear out the overgrown garden and get it ready to refurbish, replant and update the space. Help us take the first step in creating an outdoor learning area that students and teachers will enjoy for years to come. Stay for as little or as long as you are able - families are welcome!

Also, for those families who have used the community planters in the past, please collect any items you'd like to keep before Saturday. Thank you!
