Welcome Back

Hello CCSMS Families and Scholars!

We have missed you this summer! But we are working hard to get ready for a great year. This email has some of the basic information that will help prepare for the school year.

We will have an open house to pick up your schedule and to get any assistance with forms or info needed for the year on August 15th from 4pm to 6pm.

Orientation for new scholars will be on Monday, August 15th from 1pm to 3pm. Our rising 9th graders returning to us are also invited to attend.

The first day of school is Wednesday, August 17th. We will continue to start our day at 8am and as a reminder drop off begins at 7:30am. Bus routes will be shared in the coming weeks and forms will be available to confirm if planning on riding a bus to and/or from school.

Please be on the lookout for prompts to complete forms in Operoo next week. It is an online form system we use in addition to Power School's new e-collect forms.

Go Riptide!

Executive Principal and CEO

Orientation for New Families and 9th Grade

Orientation for new scholars and their families will be from 1pm to 3pm on Monday, August 15, 2022. Please plan on arriving at the school by 12:45, so we can start around 1pm. You can park in the school's back parking lot at the end of Grove Street or in the Food Lion Parking lot.

New families are invited to attend. We will have informative sessions with our staff members for our parents and guardians while the scholars are meeting their teachers and learning about CCSMS at the same time. We will also have stations set up to assist you with online and paper forms, for payment of fees, and to answer any questions you may have.

Returning scholars entering 9th grade are also invited to attend orientation if they would like to.

Scholars will walk their schedules and learn about what their day will look like at CCSMS. We will finish with the scholars at 3pm.

Please use this link to register for orientation.
