Our “Be A Water Warrior"  drive for the people of Haiti was a huge success.  All bottled water will be delivered to the people of Haiti through Matthew 25 Ministries of Cincinnati.  Done in conjunction with other Campbell County schools, CCMS  collected over 2,000 bottles of water.  Because of meeting our goal, Mr. Sandlin and Ms. Henson have agreed to color their hair blue!   Look for pictures on the district website.  For more information go to the National Jr. Beta Club website:  www.betaclub.org
