Opening schools
We will open the 2020-2021 school year Aug. 17 with fully remote
learning under the CMS Plan C. This plan is designed to address worsening
COVID-19 conditions and was an option given to districts by N.C. Gov. Roy
Cooper in a statewide announcement July 14.
Academic
update
Virtual Family Canvas Connects will
be held for all CMS students and families to ensure they have a consistent
experience when using Canvas, the district’s learning management system.
Families can register
now; topics will include what to expect with Canvas, how to access the Canvas
app and pair it with a student account, and the functions available to parents.
Sessions will be held Aug. 10, 6-7 p.m.; Aug. 12, 8-9 a.m.; and Aug. 14, noon-1
p.m.
Meal
applications
Families
can now apply
for meal benefits for the 2020-2021 school year. This applies to students
who will be learning at school or from home. Approved students may also qualify
for discounted fees for college applications, pay-to-play athletics, academic
tests (SAT, ACT, Advanced Placement) and internet access from some providers.
Also:
- Meal prices will remain the same next year. All
students will receive breakfast at no charge. Lunch prices are $2.50,
pre-kindergarten; $2.75, kindergarten to eighth grade; and $3, ninth to 12th
grade.
Medical
advisory team
CMS
has assembled a medical advisory team that will recommend metrics for
determining when we can safely transition to in-person instruction. The team
includes members of our medical community from the public and private sectors,
as well as district staff. We expect to convene soon and will provide updates
on the team’s progress.

Mallard Creek's Teacher of the Year - LaShay Conley
The staff has voted, and 3rd Grade's Ms. Conley is the Teacher of the Year! In her 9th year of teaching, Ms. Conley considers her grade level of scholars to be "wonderful." Her success is no accident, as she works hard each and every day to reach all children. "Teach only the truth and inspire them so that learning will not cease at the classroom door," says Conley. "Let the lessons they learn make their lives fruitful and happy.
Your love of learning can be infectious and inspiring to any student you teach."
Congratulations to Yorel Barclay for being selected as Mallard Creek's Instructional Assistant of the Year!
Ms. Barclay has worked in education for 15 years. She is truly honored to be named Mallard Creek's I.A. of the Year. "I would not be here accepting this honor today without the help of my colleagues and family. I am eternally grateful for all the nominations that led me to being voted I.A. of the year."
Ms. Barclay's favorite quote is,
"Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today."
