On Saturday, March 4, 2023, some of the Migrant Education Program (MEP) students from Claxton Middle School and Claxton High School attended a Migrant College Experience Day at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, GA. MEP is designed to help students focus on academics, graduation, and post-high school options available.
Please help ECCSS recognize and celebrate all of our Tigers who participated!
Ms. McDaniel's 3rd grade class has discussed good decision-making and problem-solving skills to avoid negative consequences. Ms. McDaniel's class applauded good decision-making by creating good decision-making crowns. #CES
Kids are stronger with school breakfast!
Students in Mrs. Sapp's 7th grade math classes are collaborating to create a composite figure and to solve for the area of previously learned shapes. This engages their critical thinking skills when finding all the shapes. Students also had to follow very specific directions to create the folded parallelograms (7 of them), and even more directions to put them all together. The finished project looks much like a pinwheel. #4Cs #ActiveLearning

Congratulations to Mollie Lane, Kaelyn Smith, and Damonae Wharton, finalists in the Canoochee Washington Youth Tour competition!

Good luck to these ladies as they participate next Tuesday in the final round of competition!

Our 7 Mindset Focus this week is THANK IT FORWARD. One guaranteed way to feel better and become happier is to do something for someone else. One of the best things you can do is to tell someone thank you for who they are and what they have done for you. Telling someone thank you makes the other person feel good and it makes you feel good for telling them! So let someone special know how thankful you are for them this week!

MathMania competitors and alternates enjoyed a Dairy Queen blizzard for their hard work and awesome behavior! Thank you Dairy Queen for helping make this possible! #CES
Webster's Dictionary defines annotation as " A remark, note or commentary on some passage of a book, intended to illustrate its meaning." Students in Mrs. Ikner's 6th grade ELA classes are learning how to annotate as they read in order to build understanding and use that understanding to write about what they have read. #4Cs
Students who visited the CMS media center today got a little surprise. Mrs. Durrence, CMS media specialist, showed them the new "Mystery" section. Each book was wrapped up like a gift, and the students had the choice of a mystery book or any other book of their choice. Most students liked the element of surprise, and checked out the wrapped book. They weren't allowed to open them until they left the media center. The whole idea is to teach students that all books are a gift with a special story, and we can't always judge them by their cover.
CMS would like to congratulate our Young Georgia Author grade level winners. We are very proud of your accomplishment!
