Registration, Bell Schedules, & Lunch Times:

Complete Your Child's Online Registration Today! This is an important and required step to ensure we have current contact information, medical information, and other student details.

 

It's Time for the CFMS Book Fair!

Set up an eWallet & shop today!

September 15 - September 19

Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to build your child’s home library with new books they’ll dive into again and again. 

The easiest way to let your child shop the Fair independently is by creating an eWallet. It’s easy to set up and easy for others to add funds. 

Create an eWallet, and you’ll also have the opportunity to contribute to Share the Fair - the giving program that supports students at our school who need help buying books. Consider participating so that no child leaves the Fair empty-handed!

Here’s everything else you need to know about the Book Fair: 

Dates: September 15 - September 19
Location: CFMS Library

For full details, and to create an eWallet, visit our school’s Book Fair homepage here!

More than ever, we need to get students reading. Studies prove* that children with more books at home have higher-level reading skills, and attain more years of education overall. 

Happy reading!
