CMS students lead the way in community cleanup project | Nearly 60 Carrollton Middle School students recently took part in a Greenbelt Cleanup Community Service event, demonstrating their commitment to keeping our community clean and beautiful. Walking approximately one mile of the Greenbelt, students picked up trash around campus and along the paved walkway, making a noticeable difference in the environment. By participating in events like this, CMS Beta Club students not only earn service hours but also develop important life skills such as responsibility, teamwork, and environmental stewardship—qualities that will serve them well for years to come. This is just one of many opportunities they will have this year to continue making a positive impact. | |

Pictured from left are Carrollton Upper Elementary School students Talea Campbell, Ezekiel Thomas, Hatton Parian, and Caroline Cornell. | First STREAM day of the year for CUES students | At Carrollton Upper Elementary School, students engage in hands-on STREAM activities, incorporating Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, and Math, to develop problem-solving skills and gain a deeper understanding of how these subjects are interconnected in the real world. One example of this is their work at Buffalo Creek, where students have the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge to outdoor projects. These experiences allow them to explore environmental science, practice engineering skills by analyzing natural systems, and use math to measure and track data. Through this type of experiential learning, students not only enhance their academic skills but also foster a sense of responsibility for their community and the environment around them. | |
