Parent and Family Engagement School Goals

Cedar Creek Middle School will take the following measures to promote and support parents as an important foundation of the school in order to strengthen the school and reach our school goals:

"CCMS is FOCUSED on creating an environment where ALL students can learn and increase their academic achievement!"

  • CCMS will continue to support all parents efforts through a parent group. 

  • The CCMS administration will communicate weekly through our final site system which includes email and the message posted on our website.  The content of the message is to serve as updates and reminders to the school community for upcoming events. 

  • Teachers will update PowerSchools weekly.

  • The CCMS website and Facebook page (PTSO) will be kept up to date with current information and events.

  • Please join the PTSO Facebook Group

  • The CCMS Main office will offer parent support through excellent customer service, technology support, and information support.

Cedar Creek Middle believes that parental involvement means the participation for parents in regular two-way and meaningful communication about student academic learning and other school activities. 

This ensures that parents are full partners in their child’s academic development and are included, as appropriate, in decision-making and on advisory committees to assist in the education of their child.
