With the opening of our new annex building next year we hope to have a new plan in place for parent pick-up for the 08/09 school year.
This should be a huge improvement with our traffic concerns in and around CPMS. Further details will become available when we know the exact date for the annex opening.

Parents, last night CPMS had 10 portables (18 classrooms) broken into with more than 20 windows broken and extensive damage done to our property.

CPMS and staff did an amazing job, finding classrooms locations for approximately 300 students before the start of the day with your student's education going on as normal today.

Unless we find anything unexpected we should be back in the majority of these classrooms tomorrow AM. We are sending letters home with all students at the end of the day today.
Thank you for suppot in this matter.

For all students testing, there will be a zero tolerance policy for any telecommunication devices including cell phones, PDAs, ipods, etc. that are visible or heard during testing. If the testing monitor sees or hears a student with any of these devices after testing begins, the device will be confiscated and turned over to a campus administrator. If it is determined that the confidential integrity of the test was compromised in anyway, the test will not be scored. This means that the student will not get a score for the test. Listed below are some tips on how to HELP YOUR CHILD DO WELL ON TESTS.

1. Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep before every test.
2. Provide a light, healthy breakfast on test day.
3. Have your child dress comfortably and arrive at school on time.
4. Send your child off to school with confidence-building words of praise and support: You'll do great! Believe in yourself! I love you!
5. Suggest that your child breathe deeply to relax before and during the test.
6. Remind your child to read directions carefully and look at all the answers before choosing one.
7. Tell your child to check his or her answers before turning in the test.
8. Do not schedule trips, dental or medical appointments, or early pickups for testing days.

We are aware of our current traffic problems around the school. We have studied the traffic problems around the school and have determined a need for a change. However, the changes in traffic patterns will be implemented later in the school year due to the design and construction time lines related to the annex construction. We will continue to use the front of the building for parent pick up, our side entrance for buses from 8:00 to 9:00 and 4:00 to 4:30. Please avoid the back parking lot due to safety concerns. We ask for parent/community patience and understanding as we enter this exciting new phase in the history of CPMS.
