students doing yoga

Our character education program at CMS is hosting some culminating activities this month, the first of which was our annual 7th grade Wellness Day with many interactive activities and speakers addressing health topics. Students learned how to make healthy snacks using avocados and vegetables, practiced yoga techniques as well as calming coping strategies using art and play materials, and engaged in active discussions about the dangers of energy drinks.

Special thanks to our five guest presenters:
