Chickahominy Middle School will be hosting an Open House, which will include schedule pick-ups and payment of fees.

Principal Debbie L. Arco said the schedule is as follows:

—3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 31—rising eighth-graders only.
—3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1—rising seventh-graders only.
—3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 2—rising sixth-graders only.

Personnel from the Transportation Department will have information about bus routes in the cafeteria.

Cafeteria staff will be available to accept deposits to students’ lunch accounts.

Physical education teachers be in the gym to help students who need to purchase gym suits or who want to purchase CMS spirit wear.

Medications may be brought to the clinic all three evenings. Appropriate documentation (parental form authorizing medication to be administered and phyhsician’s orders) must be completed in order for medication to be administered at school.

“We encourage you to make every effort to attend Open House on your scheduled day,” Arco said. “However, if circumstances prevent this, a family member or friend may pick up the student’s schedule on the appropriate day, provided they have written permission from the parent or guardian.”

Arco also said that the “Charger Connection” that was mailed to homes the first week of August contains additional start of school information.

Back to School Night is scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 16. Arco said students will bring home a flyer detaling the event the first week of school.
