At CRMS, we have a little something for everybody. Encouraging Kindness, Knowledge, and Bravery is our daily mission. Check out some of the bulletin boards that welcomed students back to the 2023-2024 School Year. See more pics on our Facebook!
Good attendance for your student begins on the first day of the school year. Consider the following facts:
Chronic absenteeism may prevent children from reaching early milestones.
Chronically absent students have difficulty keeping up with the pace at which they are expected to learn and grow.
Students who are absent even a day or two every few weeks fall behind their peers.
Irregular attendance can be a better predictor of whether students will drop out before graduation than test scores.
Consistent, on-time attendance is a habit that lasts into adulthood.
In addition to wanting the best possible education for your child, we also closely monitor absences because Maryland law requires that children ages 5-18 attend school. Students may be withdrawn if not attending school regularly; students not enrolled or attending will be considered truant.
How Can Parents Encourage Good Attendance?
Build good attendance habits early so children know that getting to school on time every day is important!
Set a regular bedtime & morning routine, laying out clothes and backpacks the night before.
Avoid scheduling appointments & trips when school is in session.
Don't let your child stay home unless he/she is truly sick.
Consider that sometimes a stomach ache or headache is a sign of anxiety. If your child seems anxious about going to school, talk to the school about helpful resources.

Congratulations to our May Power Players of the Month!
We had an amazing Career Day at CRMS today! Thank you to Cantner's Pharmacy for providing the refreshments, and all of our school and community partners for participating!
It was a really hot day and a hot ride back for some of the students on the Hershey Park trip. Please make sure your student hydrates and rests when they return home tonight. Sweating, headaches, and feeling nauseous can be signs of dehydration.
Take care. Be well. #BeAPowerPlayer
