💙🧡 Happy Principal Appreciation Month! 🧡💙
CMS would like to give a HUGE thank you to Mr. Blackburn for everything he does for our school! This year has brought plenty of extra challenges as we navigate all of the renovations and construction, but through it all, Mr. Blackburn continues to make sure our students, faculty, and staff are supported and taken care of.
From handling the behind-the-scenes renovation details to still finding time to be present in classrooms, hallways, activities, and events, his dedication to CMS never stops.
Thank you, Mr. Blackburn, for your leadership, patience, flexibility, and everything you do to make CMS a great place to learn and work! 🐾

🇺🇸 Celebrating Constitution Day at CMS! 🇺🇸
Our CMS Civics students put their creativity and knowledge of government to work for Constitution Day! Students created their own superheroes based on one of the three branches of government: Legislative, Executive, or Judicial. 🦸♀️🦸♂️
Each hero was given special “powers” based on the responsibilities of their branch, along with a custom outfit designed to showcase those powers. What a fun way to bring the Constitution and our system of checks and balances to life! ⚖️📜
Great work, Cougars! 🐾🇺🇸

🐎 CMS FFA Goes Behind the Scenes at Colonial Downs! 🏇
CMS FFA traveled to New Kent, VA, for an exciting behind-the-scenes tour of Colonial Downs! Students had the rare opportunity to speak with horse industry professionals, including veterinarians, jockeys, starting gate officials, and more.
Members toured the barns, where the facility can house up to 800 horses during peak racing season, before heading to the Grand Box seats to watch the horses warm up, prepare, and race. They even visited the track and Winner’s Circle!
It was an unforgettable, front-row experience for our FFA members interested in careers in the horse and racing industries! 🐴🏆
