Parents/Guardians:
Please complete this End of Year Survey as soon as possible:
https://forms.gle/YL9eTocfkwmdEDSy6
It will give us important information so we can qualify for federal Coronavirus relief money and be able to purchase additional computers for student use as well as to help us improve remote learning. If you have multiple children in the district, you only need to complete the survey once and you can provide feedback on all children (pre-kindergarten through grade 12). #KidsAreOurCustomers
We miss you! Hope you are continuing to do your assignments. #KidsAreOurCustomers

Please Share: May 5 is Teacher Appreciation Day. During this time of crisis, our educators have acted as a “Lighthouse” for our students and their families, serving as beacons of light and hope and helping them safely navigate the educational challenges related to COVID-19.
Let’s show our teachers how much we appreciate their love and unwavering commitment to North Carolina’s public schools by placing a light in a window or turning on an outdoor light at 8:20 p.m. on Tuesday, May 5 for 20 minutes. Please share your photos with us using the hashtag #NCLighthouseLeaders. Teachers, thank you for lighting the way for learning for North Carolina’s K-12 students. #NCLighthouseLeaders #KidsAreOurCustomers
Parents: Thanks for your cooperation today in picking up third quarter report cards. Our remote learning continues through May 29th.
We will issue one final report that will contain remote learning participation and promotion/retention information for the 2020-2021 school year once all remote learning is completed. Please continue to be in touch with your child’s teacher regarding work done at home and packet completion. Our next packet pick up will be next Wednesday May, 6th from 10 a.m. to noon at Clara Hearne, Belmont, Manning, and Chaloner.
5th Grade Parents: Unfortunately, the fifth graders did not get to tour Chaloner Middle School this spring in order to see, firsthand, the exploratory/enhancement classes they are able to choose. Chaloner has developed a video for parents and students to view describing their classes in hopes of helping students make wise decisions. The fifth grade teachers have added this video to their Google Classrooms to view. PLEASE take the time this weekend to watch the video with your child in order to make informed decisions for next year.
Starting Monday, April 27th, students can go to their Google Classroom and register for their selections for the upcoming school year. Students will have until Tuesday, May 5th, to complete the registration process.
The CMS counselors will call any student who does not complete a registration form. #KidsAreOurCustomers
Parent/Student April 20th Update: If you have a library book you have finished reading, we will collect those this Wednesday during our packet pick up. Our librarians will be at Belmont, Chaloner and Manning to collect library books from 10 a.m. to 12 noon. Students may return books to any school and we will sort them out, with the exception of RRHS Seniors. Seniors we will arrange for you to turn in your library books and chromebooks some time next month. #KidsAreOurCustomers
Belmont Parents: When you pick up work packets this Wednesday between 10 a.m. and 12 noon, please remember to turn in your cover sheets for work packets 1 and 2. These important sheets help inform our teachers what students may need help with. They also let teachers know that you have been working hard at home. If you would like to scan, email, or send a picture of the cover sheet to your child's teacher, that would be another option. If you can't make the Wednesday work packet distribution, there will be self service boxes right beside the front doors of the school, where you can get the newest packets and turn in your cover sheets for previous work. We would like to thank all of our students for working hard and all of our parents for making this happen at home! #KidsAreOurCustomers
Parent/Student 4/19 Update: It's time for our next round of packets! We will once again be distributing packets and bags of food this Wednesday 4/22 between 10 a.m. and noon at Belmont, Manning, Clara Hearne, and Chaloner.
Additionally, a local non profit group, The Rewritten Story Foundation will be using our parking lot at Manning this Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday to hand out lunches from 10 a.m. to noon. #KidsAreOurCustomers
Belmont Bees: Here’s a fun Maker Space Activity.
Pretend that you were hired to design a new playground at our school. Think about what it would look like. What are some things you would include? Using materials that you have at home create your playground. You can use paper, crayons, toilet paper rolls, cardboard, etc. to create your playground. Once you are done get someone to take a picture of your playground and post it in the comments. Have fun!
