Staff vs Students Basketball Game Donations

We are asking for concession donations for our Staff vs. Students Basketball Game next week! Please check the Sign Up Genius if you are willing to donate. Thank you!! SIGN UP HERE!

Student March Madness Competition

March Madness is approaching, and your CMS Student Council has an exciting way to raise funds for our school's needs while fostering friendly competition. This event is open to both students and staff!


Each participant is allowed one entry into the competition. Submitting multiple entries will result in disqualification. To enter, simply bring $5 to lunch next week from March 10-11. Bracket selections will take place from March 16-20, so mark your calendars!


The winner will enjoy a pizza party for their entire Colt Time class and will also have the privilege of deciding how the collected funds will be used—either to help reduce lunch debt for CMS students or to support the purchase of new books for the CMS Library.


If you're unable to contribute financially, no worries! You can still join in the fun, but please note that you won't be eligible for the prize.

A Note from Nurse Sibley

Parents of Rising 7th Graders:


If your student is missing the required TDaP and/or Meningococcal vaccine, you should have received a letter on Thursday. The State of Texas requires that every 7th grade student in public school have these vaccines in order to remain enrolled. If your student gets his or her wellness exam over spring break, please email the new vaccine record to me so I can update our records. If you received the letter and your student has had these vaccines, all I need is a copy of the record. If you prefer to file for a vaccine waiver, you can do that at this address: https://www.dshs.texas.gov/immunizations/school/exemptions. These can take a few weeks to complete so I encourage you to file sooner rather than later. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. My email is candace.sibley@gcisd.net. Have a great spring break!
