☀️6th Grade Orientation, "Camp Panther,"- Friday, August 14th!☀️

CCMS participates in the nationwide WEB Program. WEB (Where Everyone Belongs) is an organization whose primary purpose is to help sixth graders feel more comfortable as well as help them achieve success in their first year of middle school. The sixth-grade orientation and social events hosted by WEB are designed to both welcome and support sixth-graders by introducing them to 8th-grade WEB Leaders. These WEB Leaders are responsible older students who have been hand-selected from a large pool of applicants and have met the qualifications of being a good role model and a positive leader on our campus. 

 

🎉 🎉Your student is invited to participate in our Orientation called Camp Panther on Friday, August 14th from 9:00- 11:00 am. 

 

This is a 2-hour event for our incoming 6th-grade students.🐾💙

 

Here is what you and your student can expect in advance of Camp Panther.

  1.  All 6th-grade students enrolled at CCMS are included and invited to attend! No sign-ups required! 

  2. A day or two before orientation, your student will receive communication from one of their WEB Leaders personally inviting your student to Camp Panther and giving them details, including what group number they are in.

    1. WEB leaders will email the student email account and/or text the cell phone number on file in AERIES

  3. Drop-off & pick up will be at the Front Blue Gate by the main office to enter the campus.

  4. This is a 2-hour event. CCMS will not be providing supervision for students before or after the event. 

  5. Your child is encouraged not to bring backpacks to Camp Panther, as the day is very active. Small purse or bag is fine, if needed. 

  6. The event is very active!

    1. Wear comfortable clothing that does not restrict movement 

    2. Closed-toed shoes are required

    3. Bring their own water bottle! We will have water refill stations available.

    4. We will be outside for the 2-hours, so hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen are encouraged!

 

Camp Panther is a student-only function, so we encourage parents to let their child attend on their own.  We look forward to a fun 6th Grade Orientation!

 

➡️ If your student needs IEP accommodations/ adult support or has special medical needs (ie. exacerbated by heat, loud noises, etc), please reach out to Ms. Slemmons at [email protected]. 

 

Sincerely,

The WEB Coordinators: Ms. Slemmons, Ms. Wilke, Mr. Castillo, Mr. Kern
