Mr. Walsh's 6th graders recently explored how the Sun's angle affects the amount of solar energy reaching Earth. Using solar cells, they tested how changing the angle of incidence of sunlight affects the electricity produced—just like scientists and engineers do in the real world!
Through this hands-on investigation, students discovered why the Sun’s angle plays such a big role in our seasons. #Celebrate379

Another moment in history is being written at CCCMS… and this one comes with paint, creativity, and a whole lot of Bengal pride. 🐾🎨
Our Class of 2030 is hard at work designing their hallway tiles—each one a unique snapshot of who they are right now. These tiles will soon take their place on the walls, joining a tradition that has been going strong since the Class of 2008.
As you scroll through these photos, you’ll see more than just artwork—you’ll see years of memories lining our hallways. Every tile tells a story. From past classes to present day, it’s like taking a walk down memory lane, where each square represents friendships, milestones, and a piece of CCCMS history.
Now it’s the Class of 2030’s turn to leave their mark. Years from now, future Bengals will pass by these very tiles and wonder about the students who created them—just like we do today.
Here’s to honoring the past, celebrating the present, and building a legacy that lasts. 🧡🖤 #BengalPride #CCCMSLegacy #ClassOf2030 #TraditionLivesOn

🔥 Be The Standard: Call of the Day 🔥
Today’s shoutout is going to someone who truly set the bar high… Wade Hamel! 👏
This one is extra special because it’s our first-ever Call of the Day where students recognized greatness in one of their own and took the time to nominate him—how awesome is that?! 🙌 Huge thanks to Laney and Kennedy for seeing the good and speaking up!
During the Home Track Meet, when others passed by, Wade stepped up. He volunteered to pick up trash—no spotlight, no recognition, just doing what needed to be done. 💪 And here’s the kicker… he had his own event coming up, and still chose to help out first. That’s next-level selflessness.
Wade showed what it means to put First Things First and think Win-Win—taking care of our school while supporting his team at the same time. This is just one example of the kind of character he brings to CCCMS every single day.
Way to go, Wade—YOU are setting the standard! 🐾

🐾🧡 Bengal Strong Habits in Action Spotlight 🧡🐾
Today we’re rolling out the orange carpet for a VERY special crew… it’s Administrative Professionals Day, and we are celebrating the absolute MVPs of our building! 🎉
Let’s be real—our school secretaries are the glue, the engine, the calendar keepers, the problem solvers, the “do you have a minute?” lifesavers… basically the reason anything runs smoothly around here 😄
We truly couldn’t do this job without you.
You are simply THE BEST.
Our success depends on you more than you know, and your hard work never goes unnoticed.
From answering a million questions a day to keeping us all organized (and sane), you keep our Bengals rolling strong 🐾
Let’s give a BIG shoutout and ALL the appreciation to our two amazing secretaries—we are so lucky to have you leading the way every single day! 🖤🧡
👇 Keep scrolling to meet these behind-the-scenes superheroes… their bios are below, and trust us—you’re going to want to read these office legends in action! 😎✨
Ashley Snyder is in her fourth year serving as a secretary for USD 379. Her husband is a paramedic with Riley County EMS. They have three daughters—a 5th grader, a 3rd grader, and a 1st grader—who keep them on their toes! In their free time, you'll usually find them on the road with B’s softball team, NEK Traveling basketball, or cheering on their younger two in Rec sports. They love staying busy and being involved in the community! Ashley loves a good sunny day to just be outside, watch her kids play, and enjoy the finer things in life.
Ginny Hovland is in her Third School Year, and she loves what she does and who she works with. She has been married for 21 years with 2 of the most outspoken children she could ask for. Her son graduated in May 2025, and her daughter is a 9th grader. She enjoys reading and mathematics. Along with English, aka ELA, and Music. Her favorite colors are Red, Blue Go KU, and Pink and black. Also, she feels like we all have some of the BEST Students between the two Schools. She says we have some amazing staff, and she enjoys working with them all.

After reading a play adaptation of Anne of Green Gables, Mrs. Blaine's Bengal Writing class decided to write their own plays! Students utilized prewriting strategies to develop a story plot, then they expanded with stage directions and character dialogue. Three groups shared their version of “The Day the Teachers Disappeared,” each with their own flair. Well done, Bengal Writers! #Celebrate379
