Fall Picture Retakes will be October 28th!

The only students who need to have their picture taken are:

Students who were absent on the original picture day (September 8).

New students to the school.

Students who purchased pictures and are unhappy with their photo. These students must bring their entire purchased photo package and give it to the photographer when they have their picture retaken.

Ms. Michalek's Social Studies classes are learning to write in Cuneiform, the world's earliest known writing system!

8th grade is reading “The Monkey’s Paw” and their groups are creating plot diagrams complete with illustrations. Students will then compare and contrast these elements of the original written story with the video interpretation.
What a cool project!

Ms. Camila is having tea in Chinese-Mandarin class!
Students were able to try Chinese green tea and have the Chinese Tea Ceremony as well!
Very cool!

How are we already at the end of the first grading period?!
Before you know it, it'll be Christmas Break!

Stone Age Survival Challenge!

Our 6th graders stepped back in time and put their survival skills to the test! They worked together, solved challenges, and explored what life was like during the Stone Age. Learning history through teamwork, creativity, and a little prehistoric fun!

Spirit Week, Fair Week, and Game Week! Let's make it memorable!

New Driver's Ed Class Information attached.

Spirit Week is next week!!! Get your gear ready to show your school spirit!

Last Friday, Ms. Jasmine Ward, a freshman ECU Music Education Major and CBA alumnus, visited the 6th and 8th grade brass classes. She interviewed the students on what they've learned in band, what music they like, and why they chose band.
She assisted the 6th graders with finding their first pitches as well as taught the 8th graders a CBA pep tune for Future Falcon Night! She ended with playing her tuba which really got the class hoping!
Thank you for visiting and sharing your joy for music Ms. Ward!

Our Life Skills class looks like they're having a ball!

Week 6 is the calm before the storm. Next week we have three home games and it's Fair Week! Enjoy your day!!

Yesterday was Dolly Day! So pink and rhinestones were needed! Thank you to our principals for our cup of ambition and snacks!!!
