Parent Tech Training
As Chadron Middle School's online presence grows and more information is communicated through digital means, there is a growing need to train parents on how to access and use new technology. To this end, Chadron Middle School will host a Parent Technology Training on August 23rd at 6:30 in the CMS library. The date coincides with our Back to School Open House. Topics will include:
CMS Awarded one-year Expanded Learning Opportunity (ELO) Grant
Chadron Middle School was awarded a one-year, $10,000 ELO grant from the State of Nebraska. The grant will supplement the existing 21st Century After School Program grant at CMS. The grant award will be used to expand learning opportunities for High Ability Learners in the CMS After School Program as well as provide leadership opportunities for these students who participate in the after school program.
A special thank you to Lorna Eliason, Sarah Tayor, and all of our community partners for their work and involvement in the ELO grant.
Immunization and Physical Reminder
Just a reminder that all 7th and 8th grade students must have a current physical on file at the beginning of the school year. Physicals are good for one calendar year. Physical forms can be picked up in the main office.
Important Back to School Information
I hope everyone had a great summer break. Below are a few important dates and links to information for students and parents to be aware of. I've tried to schedule around CHS orientation dates and the Dawes County Fair, so I hope that everyone is able to attend.
Dawes County Fair Art Show
Chadron Middle School students will have their artwork on display at the Dawes County Fair through next Thursday, August 4th. The students hope you will come out and look at their original creations!

2000 square feet of artificial turf and five new benches were installed at the Chadron Middle School playground on July 22nd. Volunteers from the CameCo Corporation in Crawford helped install the turf and assemble the new benches.

Chadron Middle School Testing Schedule
Chadron Middle School will NeSA test students in grades 5-8 on March 30th-April 14th. MAPS testing will follow in grades 5-8 on April 18th-April 28th. We have divided the testing schedule among the four grade levels in a way that will allow students with plenty of time to complete each test. We've also tried to spread out the testing dates in a way that is efficient, yet functional for our students and teachers.
