Go Foxes!

Arnold Mansaray is a steady and impactful leader at CMHS. Though quiet by nature, he leads through his actions, work ethic, and the respect he shows others each day. In the classroom, Arnold is focused, responsible, and consistently sets a positive example for his peers. On the basketball court, he demonstrates team first leadership that elevates those around him. What truly sets Arnold apart is his character. He is one of the kindest and most respectful students on our campus, always treating others with courtesy and integrity. We are proud to recognize Arnold as our Student of the Month.

Mr. Casper has been chosen as our CMHS Staff Member of the Month. He has taken our robotics program to the next level, leading it with high expectations from start to finish. Under his leadership, the program has shown steady growth and continues to bring home consistent tournament championships. Two of his teams earned 3rd and 4th place in the state, an incredible accomplishment. What makes this even more impressive is that many of his teams are very young, made up largely of freshmen. The future of our robotics program is incredibly bright, and his leadership is a big reason why.

On upcoming Benchmark and STAAR testing days, CMHS will run a modified schedule and only half of the school day will meet after testing is complete. Please review the dates below so you know which classes will meet.

On Afternoon Class days, students will attend 5th–8th periods beginning at 12:00 PM.

On Morning Class days, students will attend 4th, 3rd, 2nd, and 1st periods (in that order). We will still run 5th period for lunch.

• March 5 – US History/Biology Benchmark: Morning Classes

• March 6 – Algebra I Benchmark: Afternoon Classes

• April 7 – English I & II EOC: Afternoon Classes

• April 15 – US History/Biology EOC: Morning Classes

• April 22 – Algebra I EOC: Afternoon Classes

If you have a senior free first period, that free period will move to the end of the day on Morning Class schedule dates. If you are not testing on a designated day, you will not have to arrive until 11:30. Please plan ahead for these schedule adjustments.
