Attention CMS High School parents! Join us on Tuesday, February 25th, at 5:30 PM in the CMS High School Cafeteria for an important Prom Parent Meeting. We’ll be discussing food, finances, and festooning (decorations) to make this a memorable night for our students. Your input and support are essential! We look forward to seeing you there!

CMS High School - CAPS Conferences will be held on March 13 and 14, 2025. On this day all 7th through 11th grade students will be required to attend during their conference time with a parent. Over the next few weeks, students will be working to create their class schedule for next year. We encourage you to have discussions with your student over the next few weeks regarding their needs and interests, which will help them in selecting courses for next year.
Students will be contacting parents on Friday, Feb. 14th, to schedule their CAPS appointment time and bring home a letter with more information. Thank you for your support of your student's academic success.

Dear Cutter Morning Star Families,
We want to inform you about adjustments to our school calendar due to the snow days on January 9th, 10th, and 14th, 2025. Per our approved 2024-2025 calendar, we will be making up the missed instructional time as follows:
Monday, February 24th – School will be in session as a regular school day (not a Wednesday schedule).
Monday, March 10th – School will also be in session as a regular school day.
As an alternate calendar school, we track instructional time by hours rather than days. Arkansas law requires 1,068 instructional hours per year, and our calendar includes additional hours beyond this requirement. By utilizing February 24th, March 10th, and our built-in banked hours, we will meet the required instructional time.
Additional Makeup Day (If Needed):
If any further instructional time is lost (due to additional snow days or unforeseen closures), Monday, April 14th will be designated as a makeup day.
At the end of the school year, we will evaluate our total instructional hours. If we exceed the required hours, an early dismissal on the last day of school may be considered. However, this decision will not be finalized until the last week of school.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Please plan accordingly for February 24th and March 10th as regular school days. Student attendance is expected.
Thank you for your support!
