Current Opportunities...

EOG Proctors Needed

We are planning our End of Grade tests which are scheduled May 19-22. If you are able to to help proctor the test, please contact Mes. Copeland at 980-343-1065 or at h.copeland@cms.k12.nc.us by May 9th.

Testing will begin at 9:30 and should be completed by 12:00. We will have a brief proctor training at 9:00 each morning before testing begins. If you are able to help on multiple days you will only need to attend the training on the first day.

Calling all Businesses...

The 5th Grade Celebration Committee is looking for a business to "sponsor" a gift for our 5th grade students - we would like to get each child an autograph as part of their moving up ceremony. If you own a business, or know someone who does, and would be interested in sponsoring this, either in part or in whole, please email Vicki Taylor at march2127@aol.com.

Staff Breakfast

Did you know that our teachers and staff meet at school every Wednesday at 7:45 for meetings and trainings? The PTA would like to treat them to a parent-provided breakfast the 3rd Wednesday of every month. In January, the kindergarten parents provided breakfast. The schedule for the rest of the year is:

March 19 - 1st grade April 16 - 2nd & 3rd grade May 21 - 4th & 5th grade

Please watch for more information to come home in Thursday folders on how you can help us treat our teachers to breakfast.

Cleaning out your children's closets?

The Health Room is in need of donations of gently used elastic-waist pants in sizes 5-12. There is also a need for new underwear in sizes 5-10 and new socks in sizes S-L.

Aluminum Cans

Please bring your aluminum cans to the school's Can-Do trailer (located in the parking lot). We are collecting ALUMINUM CANS ONLY - please no plastic bags. It's good for the students and the environment.
