Happy Holidays CMS Families!

Thank you for sharing your children with us this semester! We hope you are able to share time together at a slower pace over the next few weeks to reconnect with those you love most. It is a gift to spend our days with young people during the holiday season - there is so much excitement!

I plan to send a Family Update on Friday, January 2 with details for our return on Monday, January 5. Until then, all the best to your family!

See you in 2026 Broncos!

MI Heart Safe Schools Award: A Commitment to Preparedness

• The MiHeart Safe Award is not simply a recognition, it reflects a rigorous, intentional process focused on student and staff safety!
• To earn this designation, each school must meet clearly defined criteria, including staff training in cardiac emergency response, the presence and accessibility of AEDs, established emergency protocols, and ongoing review of safety procedures.
• Schools are required to demonstrate sustained commitment, not just one-time compliance.
• We are proud of the work happening across the district to meet these high standards.
• This process reinforces our shared responsibility to be prepared, responsive, and proactive in protecting the health and well-being of our school communities.

Proud to announce that Coopersville Middle School has been awarded the MiHeart Safe Schools Award!

December is busy, but small, intentional habits strengthen family bonds. Try to use a simple checklist throughout the month. These micro moments build trust, resilience, and connection, especially during an overstimulating season.
