We are getting close to the climax of "Freak the Mighty!" Ask your 7th grade LA student-- What came down the chimney? There will be a quiz over chapters 12-17 on Friday! There is also a Unit 1A vocab quiz this week, so they should all be studying! Happy Wednesday!

So much is happening in "Freak the Mighty!" We are reading out loud, in partners, and by ourselves! Ask your 7th grader about the new character named Iggy. NOTE: Most classes will be having a quiz on Chapters 1-11 on Monday. Have a good weekend!


7th Grade Social Studies used road maps to identify elements of a map like Compass, Scale, Index, and Symbols. Then they tried out a skill many of us still struggle with: folding a road map!

Kids Pre-K through 8th grade register today for the 2nd Annual Kids 2K hosted by the CHS Cross Country Team.

We are learning so much about the characters in "Freak the Mighty." Students should be through Chapter 7. Remember you can find the audio chapters in Google Classroom or search for the chapter on youtube. Ask your student how Kevin and Max became Freak the Mighty.

The 7th grade ELA students were excited to start the novel "Freak the Mighty" today in class. Ask your student how Maxwell got his nickname Kicker!


All 8th graders are starting to read "The Outsiders" this week! This 55-year-old classic is always a favorite among our students. Most parents also remember reading this book in school which makes for great conversations! Be on the lookout for these books and packets to be in backpacks for homework starting today (8-22-23)!



The start of school is just around the corner! School supply lists can be found on the district homepage and on the homepage of each building for your convenience.

Next week is our last week of the summer food program. It has been a great summer! July 25-29th food will be served at CMS and Centennial. There will be no lunches served at CHS.

We've loved seeing the creativity from the many volunteers who have submitted their napkinisms! If you would like to volunteer to write positive notes that will be given to Columbus youth attending the summer lunch program contact Jen Augustin at augustinj@discoverers.org.
