News From the Nest CMS HS!

Happy Sunday!

It was a fantastic week at CMS HS! I cannot remember a smoother first full week of school. Thank you to all the parents and guardians who made sure your child was at school every day and on time! When everyone is here and we are all in class when the bell rings, it helps us all have the mindset that we are choosing excellence, and that learning is always required. Thank you!

Here is to another excellent week at CMS HS!

It's always a great day to be a Cutter Morning Star Eagle!

If your child drives to school they must purchase a hangtag. They are $10 and can be purchased in the office. They must bring their license, registration, and insurance.

All students grades 9-11 must have 75 hours of community service by the end of their senior year. Mrs. Slay is our facilitator and works to keep track of students' hours and works to provide opportunities for students to earn their hours.

📣 NEW - Parents are able to provide community service experiences and keep track of their child's hours. However, parents must report these to the school. This includes filling out the Community Service Verification Form and returning it to Mrs. Slay, and your student filling out the Google Form.

Check out the links below to find out more, or to print a Community Service Verification form for home community services experiences!

Support our CMS HS Beta Club by donating gently worn or new shoes! You can drop them off at CMS High School, or call Laura at 501-545-5576 for pick up!

Check out the dates, times, and locations for the upcoming Football, Volleyball, Golf, and Basketball games!

Don't forget! All students can receive one free breakfast and one free lunch everyday! The student must take the entire meal. Students may purchase a la carte items separately. There can be no charges in the cafeteria.

If you would like to put money on your student's account you can do so through My School Bucks and choosing Cutter Morning Star, or, students can bring money and pay in the cafeteria!

Project Boaz recently launched a heartwarming initiative to give free shoes to local kids, ensuring every child can step into the new school year with confidence and comfort.

Partnering with the Cutter Morning Star basketball teams, the project turned into a community celebration, as athletes personally helped fit shoes and encourage the young recipients.

The players’ involvement added an extra layer of inspiration, showing kids that teamwork and giving back are just as important off the court as they are during the game.

Together, Project Boaz and the Cutter Morning Star teams made it a day filled with smiles, gratitude, and a reminder that small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

Save a lot of money! Student athletic passes will be on sale during both lunches for the next couple of weeks. Please see Coach Brickell at lunch to buy your pass. Passes are $20 and cash, check, debit, cashapp are accepted. Thank you and Go Eagles!
