We are so proud of our 8th graders as they prepare to take their next big step into high school. The Moving Up Ceremony was a meaningful reflection of their achievements and growth over the past three years. Best wishes to the Class of 2029.  Your CMS family will always be cheering you on!

Mr. Bengt Anderson, a National Geographic producer and CMS parent, visited in person to speak with our sixth-grade students and connect them with his colleague, volcanologist Dr. Emma Nicholson, who joined via Zoom from New Zealand. Dr. Nicholson, featured in Lake of Fire, shared her experience exploring a remote, uncharted volcano. Students had previously viewed the documentary, which follows a team’s expedition to uncover when and why volcanoes erupt. During the visit, students asked thoughtful questions about lava lakes, how Dr. Nicholson travels to volcanoes, and how ideas for National Geographic films are developed, among other topics. This engaging experience brought the sixth-grade science curriculum to life in a truly memorable way.
