Counselors Encourage Connections as CMS Prepares for Back to School Night

Coronado Middle School (CMS) is gearing up for an exciting school year, with key events and initiatives aimed at fostering community and student well-being. During the KCS News broadcast on August 26, 2025, counselors emphasized the importance of connection and support as the school welcomes over 110 new students.

The broadcast highlighted the upcoming CMS assembly for seventh graders and the anticipated back-to-school night, encouraging parents to engage with the school community. Counselors introduced themselves and outlined their roles, inviting students to reach out for support regarding scheduling and personal matters. They stressed the significance of building positive habits, such as organization and communication, to enhance academic success.

In a push for inclusivity, counselors urged students to practice kindness and make connections with peers, especially those who may feel isolated. They announced that club days will take place on September 11, providing students with opportunities to join existing clubs or propose new ones, further promoting community engagement.

Additionally, the school will implement a "try card" system to recognize students demonstrating respect, ownership, and integrity. This initiative aims to celebrate positive behavior and encourage a supportive school environment.

As the school year unfolds, CMS is committed to creating a safe and welcoming atmosphere for all students, reinforcing the importance of community and connection in their educational journey.
