Welcome Back!

The opening of the 2015-16 school year is right around the corner, and our students are returning to a more beautiful and efficient school due to the completion of the Capital Improvement Project. The shovels were in the ground (literally) as the busses were leaving the loop on the last day of school in June. I can’t wait for you to see the culmination of the project. On behalf of all of us here at CMS I want to thank the community for your support.

Please welcome the newest members of the CMS faculty: 
Kelly Boswell – Home and Careers
Corrine Costello – Art
Linda Crossett – Teaching Assistant
Amanda Cizenski – Physical Education
Molly Eide – Grade 8 Mathematics
Bill Hanning – Art
Jeanette Lannie – Teaching Assistant/Technology
Mike McCarthy – Grade 8 Social Studies
Kate Perkins – Teaching Assistant
Katie Riley – English
Diane Zarzecki – French

With the smaller student enrollment this year we have one teaching team at each grade level. Students will bring their daily schedules home on the first day of school.

CMS PTO
The reach of our PTO is felt each and every day here at CMS due to their strong support of so many vital programs. From the Book Fair in September to the scholarships for two seniors awarded each June (and the many activities during the months in between) our building is always bustling with something fun for our students. 

We would greatly appreciate your support by becoming a member for $10 per family and/or providing additional support through our No Show Fundraiser. Just click here for the CMS PTO web page where we will be putting the link to print the No  Show Fundraiser forms for you to send in with your child or mail them directly to school at 5525 Ike Dixon Road, Camillus, NY 13031. Mark your calendars now for the first meeting on October 7 at 6:00 pm in the CMS Library. 

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
With the back-to-school season in full swing you might be purchasing items that have the Box Top seals. Look here for the list of participating products. We benefit greatly each year from the redemption of these seals. Just clip them and send them to school with your child.
