CMSD Job Fair March 2.
Falcon spotlight!! Check out our Columbus High Principal Dr. Andrews taking care of our students! He has spent the last few days escorting students with an umbrella to and from the building. Thank you to parent Yolanda Washington for giving us the heads up and shining a spotlight on Dr. Andrews. "I've never seen anything like that in the 11 years my daughters have been here," Ms. Washington said. "That's principal of the year. I think it's just awesome!" We have an amazing staff taking care of our students and we're always glad to hear about the great job they are doing. Shout out to Dr. Andrews! #StudentCentered #ExcellenceDriven #FalconNation

Today, we ask our Falcon Family to remember the life and impact of former CMSD Superintendent Dr. Cherie Labat. It would be impossible to list all the contributions Dr. Labat made to the Columbus Municipal School District during her four years, but we will try. During her CMSD tenure, she supported the Teacher Incentive Pay Program, initiated the “We Build it Better” aviation program, implemented coding curriculum throughout the district, navigated CMSD through the uncertainty of COVID-19, secured FEMA and MEMA funds to repair the Hunt Campus, and increased our accountability rating for the first time in more than a decade. Dr. Labat fully immersed herself in the community by hosting engagement meetings with the Columbus Housing Authority and spearheading the Adopt-A-Block program in East Columbus. Today we want to remember Dr. Labat and all her accomplishments that helped move this district forward. May her memory be a blessing for all who knew her.

Congratulations to some of our Columbus Middle School baseball players! Lyndon Abrams, Jordan Mixon, Jocques Lucious, Chase Colvin, Nasir Abrams, and Christian Jordan all competed in the "Rise 2 Greatness" combine this month. They worked with former Major League Baseball players, including Coach Kedrick Martin. This was an incredible learning experience; they were able to hone their athletic skills and even meet past and current MLB players. The "Rise 2 Greatness" Combine Series is an invite-only, no-cost, combine event for athletes 8-17 years old. Thank you Rise 2 Greatness and congratulations to the CMS student-athletes! #ExcellenceDriven #FalconFamily #FalconProud
