May 19, 2023
Dear CRMS Parents and Guardians,
Our yearbook class is extremely proud of the book they designed and produced this year. Yearbooks were passed out today during the sixth period. There are a small number of yearbooks left for purchase. Please see Mrs. Baker in the library if you are interested in purchasing one.
Next week we are looking forward to celebrating with our 8th graders as they take the last lap around CRMS. This event will occur on Thursday at 2:15 pm at the CRMS track. Please come and cheer on our 8th graders as they make this important transition to high school.
We are continuing to work with students on ending the 22-23 school year in a strong and positive manner. Please take the opportunity to encourage your child to practice kindness and compassion with classmates as we end the year.
Finally, there are just a few spots left for our current 6th and 7th graders in our summer programming, Project Launch. This summer enrichment program is a great opportunity for students to continue their learning into the summer. Please call Jodi Marsolek asap if you are interested in your child benefiting from this school year extension.
As always, reach out with any questions or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Liza
