Students will soon have another opportunity to expand their creative pursuits. Seven schools in the district were named as recipients of the Mr. Holland Opus Foundation grant. New instruments, with a total value of $147,250.96, will be purchased for the schools. Hear from Blair Boothe, Band Director at Northeast High, why music education is essential for our students.
This past weekend, CMCSS sent two teams to the Rocky Mountain Drill Competition in Denver, Colorado, where 47 schools and academies participated in this 5th Brigade (Wyoming, Utah, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Arkansas) sponsored event. West Creek and Montgomery Central High Schools were selected across five states to represent our 7th Brigade at this prestigious competition.
At the end of the occasion, WCHS defended the overall Unarmed Division Title they won at this event in 2023. This year, West Creek High School is the OVERALL WINNER of the Rocky Mountain National Drill Competition and winner of the 5th Brigade Norwich Cup.

🎉 TOP FIVE ANNOUNCEMENT 🎉
Diane Comperry ⭐ Special Education Assistant, Montgomery Central High
"Mrs. Comperry helps students individually set goals for themselves and rewards them when they beat their goals—bringing in donuts or other incentives," said Christy Houston, Montgomery Central Principal. "She checks grades for all her classes and will find students during CCR class to help them find success, even in classes other than her own. She purchases school supplies for her students as if they were her own children. When the school needs her to pick up any additional loads, such as subbing or covering for another class, she is always willing to help out. She has been known to come in before school and stay after to help athletes with any skill she can assist in. Overall, if Mrs. Comperry sees a need, she meets it without hesitation; if there is no need, she still shows up to do anything she can to assist in the success of the teachers and students in our building. We are grateful to have her serving us at Montgomery Central High!"
For nearly 15 years, Diane has supported Central students in so many ways. Today, we celebrate her as one of the TOP FIVE Classified Employees of the Year. She is truly an inspiration to her school community!
Diane will join the 2024 Classified Employees of the Year for a celebration hosted by the CMC Education Foundation. She may also win the grand prize - $500 courtesy of Clarksville Fencing!
Engage is our district`s annual professional development and learning conference, which brings faculty and staff together to discuss best practices and strategies over the summer. Courses include core content, special populations, related arts, and more. If it can support our students, it is discussed at ENGAGE! Teachers have the opportunity to register for June and July sessions.
During a Career Speed Networking event, 76 Seniors across the district could hear from 25 business professionals. This was a valuable experience for students in the Academies of CMCSS and Career & Technical Education pathways including
Kenwood High STEM Acadamy
Northeast High CITA Academy
Rossview High Digital Arts Academy
West Creek High Teaching and Learning Academy
West Creek High A/V pathway
The event was facilitated by the Education Equal Opportunity Group(EEOG) and was hosted at APSU.
🎉 TOP FIVE ANNOUNCEMENT 🎉
Cathey Norfleet ⭐ Special Populations Education Assistant
Cathey has been an anchor of support for students for over 40 years. Join us in congratulating her today as we celebrate her as one of the TOP FIVE Classified Employees of the Year.
"She is the epitome of someone who gives everything she has and is always ready and able to assist in any area that is needed," said Karen Hoskins, Barksdale Elementary Principal. "Mrs. Norfleet has created bonds with many of the students she works with. Students feel comfortable coming to her for assistance and for someone to listen. There are families of students she has taken under her wing and assisted with needs outside of school. [She has provided] Christmas, food, taking them places, etc. She has never been asked to do so, but this shows how big her heart is for the students that she comes in contact with every day."
Mrs. Norfleet`s career began supporting kindergarten teachers, but her heart quickly led her to special education. "She has dedicated her energy to the special education department. She forms special bonds with students and encourages them to always do their best and take pride in themselves," said Ms. Hoskins.
Cathey will join the 2024 Classified Employees of the Year for a celebration hosted by the CMC Education Foundation. She may also win the grand prize - $500 courtesy of Clarksville Fencing!
We cannot thank you enough for sharing your servant`s heart with our students, Mrs. Norfleet.
What is the Pre-K Peer Model Program?
Our peer model program is for peers to attend one of our special education PreK classrooms to serve as peer models for our students receiving special education services. Both programs use the same curriculum, the teachers and EAs train together, and they both have the same scope and sequence, amongst other things.
To be considered a peer model, the child(ren) can’t receive any type of therapy (ST, OT, PT, etc.) or have an active IEP.
Students must be four-years-old on or before August 15, 2024.
Parents and guardians who are interested in their child participating in the Peer Model Program should ➡️ Fill out the application found in the Peer Model section of our Pre-K page - www.cmcss.net/pre-k

Holly Carneyhan ⭐ Accounting Technician, Northeast High
"She is the cement that holds Northeast together," said Tavis Massey, Northeast High principal. "She is willing to complete any task that is presented to her, from designing t-shirts to ensuring that we have faculty and staff luncheons. I have seen her advocate for students and collaborate with colleagues to ensure that students have a voice."
Holly has been with CMCSS for almost 27 years, and today, we celebrate her as one of the TOP FIVE Classified Employees of the Year. Holly`s impact on her school community can be seen through her interactions with students, faculty, and staff. She truly loves her Eagle community and proudly shows her TALONS.
Holly will join the 2024 Classified Employees of the Year for a celebration hosted by the CMC Education Foundation. She may also win the grand prize - $500 courtesy of Clarksville Fencing!
Thank you, Holly, for going above and beyond to ensure our students reach their potential.
