News from Candice!

Hello Cougar Families!

We hope your week is going well. Our students are wrapping up spring i‑Ready assessments, and the calendar is packed with end‑of‑year activities. Thank you for keeping the positive Cougar energy strong!


🍦 Cold Stone Spirit Night

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our Cold Stone fundraiser—being a “guest scooper” was a blast! Your sweet tooth raised money for our school, and we loved seeing so many smiling faces. (Scroll down for a few fun photos.)

 

 

💦 Super‑Soaked Principals!

On Tuesday, Mrs. Andersen and I bravely kept our promise: every 3rd‑‑6th grader with perfect CMAS attendance earned a chance to douse us with water. It was chilly but worth it to celebrate their commitment to showing up on time and ready to test. Thanks for ensuring your children were here each day—attendance makes a difference!

 

 

What’s Next

  • i‑Ready Make‑Ups: Testing concludes soon; please help students rest well and arrive on time.

  • End‑of‑Year Events: Watch for classroom newsletters and the school calendar—field days, grade‑level celebrations, and more are coming fast!

  • Cougar Spirit: Keep bringing the kindness, curiosity, and enthusiasm that make Copper Mesa special.

Thank you for your partnership and for cheering on our students every step of the way. Let’s finish the year strong!
