• Free Internet Applications

  Free Internet Applications - CCSD is still determining eligibility
  

   

  If you do not have internet access at home, you may qualify for the state's program. The law limits the households eligible for free internet to:

  • Households with a student.

  • Internet service that is not duplicative - If the student's household already has internet, then the expenditure is not eligible under the CARES Act.

  • Internet that is needed because of the pandemic and for educational purposes.

  • Households with an income at or below 250 percent of federal poverty (see chart below).

   

  If you meet all of these qualifications, apply here:

• Public Statement & General Commitment

  June 12th, 2020

  The mission of CCSMS incorporates an ideal of shaping a more positive vision for our scholars and the community at- large. CCSMS is committed to equity and inclusion. We celebrate diversity. We recognize that to be academically excellent and developmentally responsive, we must be reliant on shared experience and expertise. We all learn from listening and seeing life through the eyes of others.

  At the core of everything we do at CCSMS is the desire to help our scholars leave us prepared to be leaders, innovators, and citizens who will have a positive impact on our community. To do this, we must value each and every scholar equally without prejudice or preconceived notions of limitations.

  CCSMS pledges to our community that we will face issues limiting social equity at our school head on during the 2020- 2021 school year. We are starting with a thorough review of our policies, procedures, practices, and systems. Professional development will focus on instructional practices to best serve our diverse population of scholars in a culturally unbiased manner. We will honor all individuals’ unique strengths and seek to create opportunities for growth.

  Together, we stand for what is right, we acknowledge we all have work to do, and we will identify and eliminate barriers, so our scholars may reach their true potential.

  This statement is the collaborative work of faculty, staff, and administrators at CCSMS. It was unanimously approved by the CCSMS Board of Directors on June 11, 2020.
