7 Mindsets Lesson this week: Focus on Strengths
Isn’t it fun to do the things you love to do? When you do the things you love to do more often you get better at them! So if you love to read- read more books! If you love to play soccer- you should play more often! Spend your time doing what you love and what you are good at and you will get better and better!


Just a reminder...CMS Students and staff are encouraged to wear house colors on Mondays. Students help earn points for their house if they wear their Amistad Red, Isibindi Green, Reveur Blue, or Altruismo Black on Mondays!
