👋 Welcome New CHMS Teachers & Staff

We want to take a moment to recognize the incredible teachers and staff at CHMS. Their dedication is unmatched—they always put students first, bring deep expertise to their classrooms, and go above and beyond every single day to support our children.

As we begin this new school year, we're excited to welcome several new teachers, new staff members, and celebrate familiar faces stepping into new roles. Each one brings something special to our school community, and we know they’ll make a positive impact on our child’s experience at CHMS.

Please join the PTO in welcoming them into the CHMS family. Your support makes all the difference—and we’re so grateful to partner with you for another fantastic year!

🙏 Thank you parents and families!

Thank you to everyone who attended Curriculum Night & Social Hour last week!
