May 8-12 is Teacher Appreciation Week and we will be celebrating our outstanding educators at Cranberry Middle!! We are so very grateful for everything our teachers do to help our students, families and other CMS staff on a daily basis. A week simply isn't enough to show all our appreciation!
We encourage our students, families and community to help us celebrate our teachers this week!


Wildcat celebration was a successful mission today. We had the theme of Mission: Impossible. The students had multiple missions they had to complete and these were some of the results. All missions were completed with great enthusiasm. Great job wildcats.






Congratulations to these band students for earning First Division at Solo and Ensemble.


Our CMS plant sale will begin Monday May 8th. From 8:00am to 3:00pm.


We are so appreciative for what all Dr. J does for our school. He is a huge supporter of everything the students are involved in. We are so glad to have him at CMS as our principal. #principalappreciationday

Weekly update for CMS.


This past week we had the privilege of going to Greensboro to compete against other schools for the state SkillsUSA conference. All of our students did great and came home with some hardware. We are so proud of our students and the way they represent our school and community. Next stop will be Atlanta Georgia for Nationals.

Here's a quick note from the NC School of Science and Math:
We are excited to share that the Summer Accelerator residential program, sponsored by the Dogwood Health Trust, is open for applications! We have two courses for rising 7th - 9th grade students and two courses for rising 10th - 12th grade students. We have openings for 60 middle and high school students to stay on our NCSSM-Morganton campus during the week of July 23-28th and take one of these summer courses.


We hope everyone had a great spring and are looking forward to seeing all the students back tomorrow.
