inform | athletics try out forms sent home today (Grade 6-9)

Students that are interested in trying out for athletic teams this year need to bring back their annual try-out authorization forms right away!  These forms give the students permission to try out for all of the listed sports (they are not obligated to try out).  Without the forms students will be unable to try out for teams, so bringing them back right away is important, especially for those wishing to try out for Boys and Girls Soccer, Cross Country Running and Boys and Girls Volleyball (Junior and Senior), as these sports have tryouts right away!

Welcome to the 2018/2019 School Year at CNGS!

School will start on Tuesday, September 4th @ 8:05.  When you arrive at the front door you will be directed to your meeting places where you will meet your teachers and start your day.

With the large number of new teachers to our school, it will take a few days to get all of our teacher blog pages up and running this year, so please watch this page for when they go live!
