No Tricks, All Treats...

Dear Parents,

What a fantastic week it has been! Thank you to all the parents who were so helpful with cooking, selling, feeding, cleaning, fitting, chaperoning, organizing, driving, recording, and cheering on at all these events! As you can see, I wouldn't be able to do nearly as much without you.
The Fall Football Game was well-attended, with a record of 26 CMS students in attendance!  They did a great job braving the elements and showing Carson High School how amazing their future students will be!

 This year's Nevada Day Parade featured a CMS Marching Band that was a class act!  They were so well-behaved and played/marched magnificently. Thank you for being there and cheering them on!




Check out those straight rows!

There will be a playing test on a simple part of one of these songs on Friday to test their basic reading skills. The Marching Band will also be receiving their Christmas parade music.

I'll update again over the weekend. Thanks again for everything!
