A huge shout out to the CIS custodians Chris, Bill, Andrew, Ruth and Robbie! They have been working tirelessly since school has ended. They have moved 23 teachers into new classrooms, along with cleaning the rooms, shampooing carpets and waxing floors. We are grateful for their hard work and dedication to make our building ready for next school year!






Our 5th grade students and teachers represented Cheboygan Area schools, and the community of Cheboygan, in wonderful fashion on their field trip to the Alpena Besser Museum.....
Good Morning,
Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting 114 fifth-grade students from Cheboygan. I must admit, the day began with a bit of unexpected confusion. During my email communication with Ann Bury, a fifth-grade teacher, the activity schedule for the students unfortunately wasn’t attached.
As a result, Mrs. Bury arrived with the other teachers and chaperones, having already divided the students into groups, assuming they were aligned with the schedule. Meanwhile, I had been operating under the assumption that she had received the schedule and prepared the groups accordingly.
As we worked through the initial confusion, I soon realized that the teachers weren’t entirely sure what to expect, due to the fact they never received the activity schedule I had prepared. Despite the mix-up, I cannot express enough how truly wonderful your fifth-grade teachers and students were. They adapted gracefully as we shuffled through a constantly evolving activity schedule to ensure that every student had the opportunity to visit the planetarium, the new Discover Northeast Michigan History Exhibit, and the Devonian Fossil Park. Some groups also explored the one-room schoolhouse, the fish and wildlife exhibit, and the art gallery.
Even with the unexpected hiccup, the students were exceptionally well-behaved, engaged, and seemed to genuinely enjoy their visit. Your teachers displayed remarkable patience and flexibility throughout the day, which I greatly appreciated!
I also sent an email to Ann Bury to express my sincerest apologies and appreciation, which was reflected in a discount for their field trip.
Your school district should be incredibly proud of these young individuals and their teachers, what a wonderful representation of your community.
Sincerely,
Christine Witulski
Executive Director
Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan

Please see the attached flyer for our 6th and 7th grade Awards Assemblies next week!


7th grade students are using the game of Jenga to model important patterns of volcanic activity. The model allows students to make the connection from "stable" systems of continuous, slow change to "unstable" systems that lead to catastrophic events.







Third graders used their knowledge of environments, adaptations & variations to invent an animal suited for their assigned environment today to wrap up their science unit. The creativity was positively bursting from the classroom!











Boys and Girls summer basketball camp flyers are attached.



Congratulations to the 6th, 7th and 8th grade Band programs tonight! All three bands did an excellent job with a surprise performance from some of our high school students!
