CCCMS is fortunate to be able to provide every student in our school with a warm meal at a very reasonable price. With over 200 students at CCCMS, there are a lot of hungry kids to feed. Our Food Service Staff, Mikaela, Tylene, and Jenn, do an amazing job with this! Each day they are hustling around the kitchen to keep all those bellies happy and satisfied. We appreciate all their hard work and dedication.
Mikaela Gergen-This is Mikaela Gergen's second year as a Kitchen Lead for the district and 12th year in Food Service. In college, she studied Dietary Management. She moved to Clay Center from Nebraska in the spring of 2021 to be with her boyfriend and their two Huskies.

Before that, she was a Para at Garfield for 6 yrs. She is married to Alan and they have 3 kids, 2 grandsons, and a son-in-law. She enjoys spending time outside and with family.
