Hello, and what a crazy Tuesday it was!  We were not able to do our NWEA testing today.  The NWEA site was down across the state, and it just happened to be when we were scheduled to test! : (  
We will try again tomorrow!  Testing is scheduled for the afternoon tomorrow.

A reminder to parents ALL transportation changes must go through the Transportation Manager Widget on MyCCS.  This includes Pups Running, News Crew, and any other after school event.  If in doubt, make the change on the widget. Thanks for your help with this!
