CHMS Weekly Update

Welcome back! We hope our students and families enjoyed a restful and joyful winter break. As we return to school, we are excited to begin 2026 with renewed energy, focus, and purpose. This is a great time for students to reset routines, set personal and academic goals, and recommit to doing their best each day.

We also want to remind families that the end of this week marks the halfway point of Trimester 2. This is an important milestone and a perfect opportunity for students to reflect on their progress so far by celebrating successes and identifying areas for growth. We encourage students to check their grades in Skyward, communicate with teachers, and take proactive steps to stay on track for a strong finish to the trimester.

Thank you for your continued partnership as we support our students throughout the remainder of the year and work together to make 2026 a year of growth, resilience, and achievement!

Our annual Hoops for Hunger field trip to a CMU women's basketball game is coming up on January 7th, 2026. Permission slips are due on Monday, January 5th. A copy of the permission slip is linked below.

It is very important that students demonstrate their ability to follow expectations while at school so that we can trust that they will follow the expectations at events outside of school. With that being said, students will not be premitted to attend this event if they have three or more behavior referrals from December 1st, 2025, through January 6th, 2026, or any major behavior referrals that result in suspension during that time. It is up to our students to make sure they are following all school expectations from now until the event on January 7th. I believe that all of our students have the ability to do this!
