**ATTENTION 8th GRADE STUDENTS AND PARENTS**
Good Morning,
We just wanted to pass along to you the latest information we received from our travel consultant regarding the postponed 8th grade trip to Washington D.C. The information below only applies if you are not planning on attending the trip for the rescheduled date that will take place in late summer or early fall (we are still waiting to secure an exact date for the trip to be rescheduled). For those that will not be going on the trip and would like a refund the company will now refund 75% of the total cost of the trip for those that did not purchase travel insurance. Please see the message below for more information:
Student Adventures offices are closed because of the governor's executive order to stay in place. Parents can contact us thru email at info@studentadventures.org and we will respond to them.
Those who purchased the CSP (Cancellation Super Protection) will receive a full refund. That is the same as it has been. The update I have for you is in regards to those who did not purchase the CSP. Student Adventures has instituted our own program called the COVID-19 Virus Protection policy where we are refunding 75% of the total trip price. This is up from the 50% guaranteed early last week. Every student under the CVP program would receive all but $184.25.
*Any additional fees such as NSF, credit card charges, late fees, or other fees that were incurred on an any individual account will not be refunded.
One of the many services provided by Student Adventures while planning the trip over the
course of this year, includes reserving transportation, hotels and various other venues to ensure
that the trip flows seamlessly. We enter into contracts and pay out many non-refundable
deposits in order to secure reservations with the best rates for our schools. Another part of the
service provided is that as we receive funds, they are paid out on your behalf, to ensure that
reservations are held. We are at the mercy of contractual obligations and requesting refunds from
vendors that have been paid in full in order to issue refunds. Again, the reason we cannot refund 100% to everyone is that certain funds were paid out on the school's behalf to various vendors who are NOT returning cash to us, only credit.
We ask for your patience as these refunds are issued, we are inundated with refund requests and
doing our best to expedite this process. Please email any questions to info@studentadventures.org
Again, we thank you for your patience with this process.

Just a friendly reminder that Thursday, March 5th will be a half day of school for CMMS students due to parent-teacher conferences. Students will be dismissed at 10:30 am. Conferences will take place from 1:00-7:00 that day.
Dear Families,
We wanted to remind you to bring your CMMS student with you for our student-led conferences (parent-teacher conferences) which will take place this Thursday, March 5th from 1:00 to 7:00 pm. Your child(ren) will be showcasing their schoolwork and discussing educational goals with you through a format called Student-Led Conferences. During conferences students will lead the discussion with you about their school work, while teachers will help direct conversation and answer questions you may have.
Below is a link to a video of how some schools use student led conferences. This will give you an idea of what to expect when you come to conferences with your child.
