CMS Parents and Students,
Our school is in the process of developing websites for our students and parents to more effectively access classroom information and resources at home. We are excited about the new possibilities this resource brings and especially hope that these tools will help your child improve his or her education. Thank you for taking the time to check out our webpage.
If you have questions or comments about these resources, you are welcome to email Mr. Marr at dmarr@clevelandschools.org or Mrs. Farlow at sfarlow@clevelandschools.org.
Check back often – More resources will be posted as we continue to develop this new website.

Math & Science:
Check out the new Math and Science homework site at: http://waveside.com/dmarrcms/
In Math class we almost always have homework on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, but not typically on Wednesdays and Fridays.
In Science, most homework is able to be completed in class, but occasionally homework will be listed on the waveside site as well.

February 25th Math update -
On Monday, February 27th, our Math class begins a new chapter covering how to solve equations and inequalities (chapter 11). Our chapter test on this material is planned for Thursday, March 8 and will be our final major grade for the third nine weeks.
I hope that the addition of these new web resources will help students prepare for this and upcoming units.
