INTRODUCING
What if there’s a no-strings-attached way to get more involved with your child and contribute to their school community?
We invite you – parents and guardians – to commit to helping CMS and the PTO just twice this school year.It’s SO EASY to help!
- Drop off bag of cheese for monthly Staff Appreciation (taco salad bar)
- Cheer and give water cups during Color Run
- Serve hot chocolate during holiday breakfast
- Coordinate logistics for Spirit Store
…and more!We value your time and participation. There’s no obligation beyond the “twice” commitment. It’s much appreciated if you are able and willing to do more, but it won’t be expected of you.Cashmere Middle School is better when staff, students, AND families work TWOgether and make a difference.
Thank you for your support!
