OUR MISSION: TO MAKE EVERY STUDENT'S POTENTIAL A REALITY BY ENGAGING AND EMPOWERING OUR FAMILIES, EDUCATORS AND COMMUNITY TO ADVOCATE FOR ALL STUDENTS.
Final DC Trip Update
There was a final meeting for students on Wednesday, April 24th during ACE. They will receive chaperone names and bus numbers. Due to a problem with the online payment system, there are many families that have not made the final payment for DC. If you did not make final payment, that system should be updated so that you can now make final payment. If you are unsure, please let us know. The departure time will be at 6am on Thursday, May 2nd. Students need to be here at 5:30am. Now that there is no school on May 1st, students will have plenty of time to pack and be ready to go!
May 1st Optional Teacher Work DayCMS Superintendent Clayton Wilcox has designated Wednesday, May 1st as an optional teacher workday for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. Superintendent Wilcox has waived attendance requirements on May 1st for all students. No make-up day is needed or will be scheduled. These decisions were made in collaboration with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education.
Wilcox said “the powerful voices of educators change student lives every day in classrooms across our community. Together, their collective voice will change communities across our state on May 1st as they advocate for investments in public education that matter most to our students and their futures.” Got Talent?!Audition!
