Parents are invited to join us tomorrow at 2pm in the 5/6 Campus Gym for the first quarter House games as students compete to gain points for their house. We will also announce students who have earned Royal Recognition for this 9 weeks. Support your team and wear your House Shirt and colors tomorrow!

All 7/8 students need to report to school at 8:00 to go to the field trip. Parents may stay at school and follow buses or drive on over to Camp Hope at 1069 Old Union Rd, Church Hill, TN 37642. Bring your own lunches and water bottles please. You may also want to bring a chair or even a pop up tent. There will be an icee truck, so you may want a little cash. Also, your child may leave with you at the end of the day, but you must sign them out with a teacher from their homeroom team. We are excited to get to know everyone better and to just enjoy a day with our CHMS family!

Our Veteran's program will be Friday, Nov 8th at 8:15am for 5th-8th in the 7/8 Campus Gym. Due to the size of our school only veterans attending our service will be recognized. If there is a veteran in your family that would like to attend please have your student pick up a Veteran Form in the office to sign them up.

Congratulations to the 300+ students who have turned in permission slips to go to the 7/8 Field Trip on Thursday! Don't let your friends go without you!
If you have not turned in your permission slip, we will still take them through Wednesday. Please note that all students who do not turn in permission to go will have to stay at school for classes. We do have scholarships available, but students MUST have a permission slip signed.

Please respect the confidentiality of our students and staff. As in any normal day with almost 400 students, there may be times for correction or redirection. We appreciate the extra set of eyes for supervision to redirect students to designated areas or activities, but would prefer that only CHMS staff deal with inappropriate situations.
Our purpose of the day is to build relationships between parents, students and staff and to learn more about social and emotional learning. Please introduce yourself and mingle! You are an important component of our CHMS family and we are so glad if you are able to be there!
