Hello i am hannah, i have gone to ccms for all 3 years and I thought it was a wonderful experience they have a thing called w.e.b leaders which means "welcome everybody and they are 8th graders that where selected by their core teachers(math,science, english) i myself was a webleader and i had a blast training for it.
we have tons of sports like football, basketball, vollyball, gymnastics and a program called sun that is compleatly free the sun classes include cooking, art, athletic classes, and many many more.
they also have a thing going on where the top ten students from each team( there are two teams for each grade the teams right now are mazama,phenox, sharks, summit, wolverine, explorer.) teachers pick their top 10 students that have great academic performance and get intered in a drawing to win a $200 gift card, a wii or an ipod. we have awesome teachers who really understand us(the students) and just great people their as well as a comfterble work place.
