7th graders performing Feudalism skits in Mrs. Briggs' History classes using props purchased with an MSPA grant. Since the Plague seems to be part of the reenactment currently, all props were sanitized after 1- touch use. @CapeMspa https://www.facebook.com/groups/175878782576476/
The pandemic has forced us to temporarily close the MakerSpace at CEMS. But that hasn't stopped IDEA Lab students from creating some AMAZING projects! This impressive Zoom-ready phone stand was the brainchild of 6th grader Mirabella Gradie in collaboration with her grandfather.
Coordinated by the Maine DOE, our awesome school nurses were vaccinated yesterday at local health care practices. Take THAT COVID! #ThePowerofUS
With the holiday approaching, please take a moment to review the travel guidelines set by the State of Maine:

Vermont and New Hampshire are still on the exempt list.
In an effort to have our schools open next week, we have developed a bus schedule that will hopefully only have to be implemented for the week of December 7-11, 2020. There will have to be double runs in order to provide students with transportation to and from school. The times listed will be arrival times at schools in the morning, and departure times from school in the afternoon. 2nd wave bus students should plan to be at their bus stops 15 minutes after their normal time. We are asking parents who can transport their own students to school next week, to do so in order to help out with this transportation challenge. Please check your email to view the schedule. Thank you.
Effective Thursday, December 3, all Cape Elizabeth Schools will transition to full remote learning. Please check your email for the letter from Superintendent Wolfrom regarding the positive case.
As we get ready for Thanksgiving Break, CEMS wanted to THANK the Cape Community for supporting both our remote and in-person learning. Have a fun, safe week and we'll see you soon!
