Since March is literacy month, there are some big prizes to be given away to the students of CCMS. Thanks to Mr. Wade Flowers and State Farm Insurance, the student that reads and has the most AR Points at the end of March will recieve a free iPod Shuffle. Now that's something worth working for!!! Get busy reading students and make that iPod yours. Happy Reading!!!

Literacy Week at CCMS

March 5-9th is literacy week at CCMS. There are several extra activities planned for each day to promote literacy among students at CCMS. On Monday we will have a visitor from the Hot Rod's mascot to talk about free baseball tickets. On Tuesday students and teachers will participate in D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything and Read). On Wednesday special guest Ms. Liza Turner, and the gang from the public library, will visit students at CCMS and talk about some new programs at the local library. Thursday there will be a school wide assembly with an Applachain Story Teller. Finally, Friday will be book give away day. Several books have been donated to Cumberland County students and every student will leave with free books. Look for more information concerning literacy week and literacy month in the hall ways at CCMS.

Don't forget the student teacher read off. The teachers are busy reading and taking AR test are you? Until next time... Happy Reading!

Student Teacher Read Off

The library theme for the month of March is "TEACHER STUDENT READ OFF". All 3 grade levels are in the process of forming reading teams. If you are a 6th grader and would like to sign up see Ms. Brittany, 7th graders see Ms. Amber, and 8th graders can sign up with Ms. Dillard. The teachers are also currently forming a reading team. The goal is for your team to accumulate the most AR points during the month of March. And yes...Teachers will also have to take the AR test and accumulate points. There is a prize! The winning team will recieve a pizza party at the end of March. And of course, the teachers can also recieve the pizza party if they read and accumulate the most AR Points. You must sign up with the designated teacher, read, and complete AR test to be eligible for the pizza party!

Common sense says that either of the student teams could easily beat the teacher team. There are only 15-20 teachers and there are 215 students. It would be a shame for the teachers to win. So students...don't be put to shame and let the teachers beat you! Get started reading now and claim the prize for your reading team. Until next time...Happy Reading!
