CMMS is thrilled to announce the creation of several after school clubs for our students. These clubs will begin on October 1st, and will run on Tuesdays and/or Thursdays from 2:30-4:00. We are working on being able to provide a late bus for transportation at two drop off points in Bangor but that has not been finalized at this point. Here is a list of our offerings so far:
Student Athlete Success Club - held on Tuesdays and Thursdays and supervised by Mr. Lynch. This club is for our student athletes that want to keep their grades up and work on some of the skills in their particular sport
Greek Mythology Club - held on Thursdays and supervised by Mrs. Dutkiewicz. This club will study the Greek Gods and Goddesses as well as read books and watch movies on the topic.
Water Heroes Club - held on Thursdays and supervised by Mrs. Windiate. This club will host activities to support the cleanup of the Great Lakes and the oceans.
Animation Club - held on Tuesdays and supervised by Mrs. Rogers. This club will create a YouTube channel where they will post school appropriate videos and animations.
Dungeons and Dragons Club - held on Tuesdays and supervised by Mr. Miller. This club will play the game of Dungeons and Dragons.
Sign up lists for these clubs are posted on the windows outside of the main office. We must have at least 10 students to run each club and there can be no more than 20 students per club.
Stay tuned for more after school clubs and after school activities. If you have any questions about our new after school clubs please contact the main office at 686-7640.
