CALENDAR 2026-2027
* tentative dates
School will close early at 4:00pm generally on the 2nd Friday of every month for staff meetings.
Please read the monthly newsletter, as other events may arise throughout the year.
CMS is a year-round school. We attempt to follow the West Ada School District calendar, although we will generally take less time off than the District during holiday breaks in order to accommodate the needs of our working parents.
Snow Days: We follow the West Ada District Snow Day closures. We will communicate snow closures via text message and ProCare.
Plan ahead! We need to know in writing if your student will be gone during breaks, holidays, etc. This is in consideration of the teachers, other parents, and the school. During holiday seasons, if there are less than 10 children present, we will close the school.
