6th grade has completed their taiga habitat! The students spent time researching, writing papers, making presentation boards, writing speeches, and hand making different parts of the taiga to present their learning. #lifeatthecreek #notborntofollow

Mrs. Eaton’s fifth grade class testing their boat to see if Mr. Bartch will float and stay six inches off of the water with the help of Ms. Taylor’s 4th grade class ramp! Our students had a blast collaborating and working on this project! #lifeatthecreek #notborntofollow

Thank you @WKRN for bringing @Brown1arthur to The Creek for Take A Titan 2 School. AJ was fantastic with Makenzie and her 3rd grade classmates. Most of the school was able to Zoom in and cheered AJ and the Titans on to victory next week. @Titans, @MCScommunicates

Fifth grade didn’t let social distancing keep them from meeting with their Q1 community partner to learn about the ins and outs of engineering! Thank you for your partnership, Mr. Daily from Daily Engineering! We are ready to begin designing mechanisms to paint our masterpieces!

Today, 6th grade participated in a Zoom meeting with Mr. Milligan, a Senior Manager at one of the Nissan plants. He discussed why STEAM is important and how it applies to not only our lives today but also our future. #OCE6thgrade #STEAM #communitypartners

@kylemnix Congratulations! Well deserved. CMS is where I landed when we moved here in 2003 (part of the first faculty). My dad and I built the shelves in the storage room off of the cafeteria and I built the pergola in the parking area. The Cougars still have a spot in my heart.

Just reading 20 minutes a day can have such a huge impact on a child! Otters, keep up the great reading this summer!
