MAP testing make-ups are next week from 12:30-3:00 pm Monday - Friday for students who are unable to finish their tests this week. Please check your school email because Mrs. Madrigal will send the Google link for you to access the testing room Monday morning.
If you have any questions, please call CBMS at 541-922-6626.
Absences are excused today. If students are able to login, we are here and ready. If students are unable to login, please do not worry. There is no need to phone/email to excuse, we know your plate is extra full today. Meals will be delivered today, please be patient, some routes will be more challenging and could cause delays. Stay safe, Umatilla!
CBMS students, we LOVE that you are taking your MAPS testing seriously and appreciate your questions about it for this week. Do not worry though, we will offer it again next week so you have a strong experience and can do your best. If the power/internet is still down then, we'll reschedule it again for you. If you have internet/power, you'll take it this week. If you don't, you'll take it later. Either is just fine.
Important reminder:
MAP testing is next week at CBMS. You will not be attending your regular classes Tuesday-Thursday in order to provide plenty of time to complete these tests. You will be MAP testing with your advisory teacher. You may check in with them between 9am and 3 pm to complete your test. Remember to take your time and do your personal best. Your advisory teacher will reach out to you with more details.
Tuesday, Sept. 8th is the MAP Math test.
Wednesday, Sept. 9th is MAP Reading test.
Thursday, Sept. 10th is MAP Writing test.

OSAA released Athletic guidance for Fall on 07/22/2020: http://www.osaa.org/docs/osaainfo/OSAA_Media_Release_July_22.pdf
Need to register a new student? Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIc3BISmyHHG4NQDgtBPgg0wa9tQIxQbG3P1cltKQhBZEvMw/viewform?fbclid=IwAR2a89sy2bzALogPiABL5BYfIrkl4FJzNEjgIAxYDfy0tc-M4MW9oSYS0mo
Looking for this year's school supply list? Stop looking, because it does not exist. We know times are stressful with COVID so we used our donations from Amazon to purchase the following for each student:
1) Earbuds with microphone for online learning
2) Neck buff (for when we return to onsite hybrid instruction)
In addition, each student will have a Chromebook checked out for his/her/their use. A mouse is available for Kinder and first grade students and students with special needs for whom operating the mousepad on the Chromebook is challenging.
Also, basic supplies (pencils, pens, crayons, paper, etc.) will be on meal buses. If you need a supply, just ask at meal delivery. If projects require additional supplies, they'll be sent home on buses as well.
