Good afternoon Copper Mesa Families!

I don’t know about you, but I am looking forward to our Spring Auction put on by our amazing PTO! It is 80’s themed and I have my outfit all picked out. There will be options to bid on some baskets or buy raffle tickets to get put into a drawing for others. Tickets are on sale now and will also be available at the event. Bring your neighbors and we’ll see you all at Max Taps on Saturday evening!

Hello Cougar Fams!

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been filled with lots of joy. I am especially loving the leaves that are popping up on the trees and the grass beginning to get green! It is weird because it seems like we skipped over winter, but who am I to complain…but I will this summer.

Hello, April!

It is so wonderful to see the leaves finally starting to "pop" on our trees and that spring energy filling our hallways. As we gear up for CMAS, we are shifting our focus to celebration and school spirit!

Hello CME Families!

We are off and running after a very refreshing Spring Break! We are in the final preparations for CMAS which starts on April 6th for our 3rd-6th graders. If you have any questions regarding state mandated testing, please reach out to Mrs. Andersen or your child’s teacher. Have an absolutely beautiful weekend!

Hello CME families!

We are all so excited for Spring Break! I wish you all a wonderful week regardless of what adventure you choose! My adventure will be hanging at home with my two doggies and maybe having a spa day. It will be a much needed week of rest!

Dear Cougar Fams,

What an incredible week of connection this has been so far at CME with Conference Week! We are always so grateful to our PTO and parents for bringing fun snacks and dinner to keep us all going. As we move toward Spring Break, we are committed to keeping the learning going with our students. I hope you and your family have some fun things planned for break. Remember that our BASE is open and has some great field trips planned.

Hello CME families!
Parent-teacher conferences are right around the corner next week! Hopefully, you have all had a chance to sign up for a time slot. These meetings are such a valuable opportunity for us to connect and celebrate your child’s hard work!

Hello CME families!

We are cruising through February! I hope you all had a great 4 day weekend together last week. The weather was beautiful so we got to get outside with our dogs. We recently adopted a sweet little Border Collie with a ton of energy that matches our other dog. We finally become empty nesters and we decide to have two dogs to ensure maximum chaos in the Wain home! Below you can see two pictures that speak volumes!
