Additional guest speakers scheduled to come in at a later date include: Daniel Slentz, computer and technology; Chase Johnson, culinary; and Tedd Ott, welding, mechanical.
CCMS: Before the break, CCMS celebrated Kindness Week, which included dress-up days, advisory kindness activities, and a fun assembly to conclude the week. CCMS was awarded a Kindness Grant from the Choose Kindness Foundation. Every Wednesday, advisories participate in kindness lessons from the Random Acts of Kindness program that align with the school-wide expectations of mutual respect, attentive listening, and appreciation. Teacher Kailyn Mann held a t-shirt design competition, and students voted which design was their favorite. The winning design will be printed onto t-shirts for students and staff. The design will be announced in the coming weeks, and CCMS plans to have shirts ready to go right after the break.
Numa: Numa’s “Classy Awards” bulletin board is filled with stars. Numa started the board at the beginning of the year, encouraging students and staff to express their appreciation by giving classy awards for outstanding, classy behavior, including all things both social and academic. The Classy Awards are announced at least twice a week and the stars are put on the bulletin board. When the board is full, the stars are taken down and given to the recipients. This is the second time they have filled the award board. Pictured are Numa Student Council students.
