What is PBIS?
Here at CMS, we are committed to helping every child become successful in the classroom and the communities in which they live. We are very excited about continuing our initiative called Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS).
PBIS is designed to teach and motivate kids to make the personal choices necessary to thrive in our society. We reinforce the positive choices through various acknowledgements throughout the school year.

Volunteering, Funding and "in kind" Donations
We are asking individuals and businesses to invest in PBIS by either donating products that would be attractive to teenagers or by donating funds to help us purchase products. Donated products can be in the form of gift cards, store merchandise, services, etc., and they can be dropped off in the front office.
Previous donated items have included:
- Hawks tickets
- Falcons tickets
- Georgia Aquarium tickets
- Movie gift cards
- Wireless headphones
- Fernbank Science Center tickets
We ALWAYS need bottled water donated for various events throughout the year. These can be dropped off in the front office and earmarked for PBIS.
If you would like to volunteer to help, we ALWAYS need help with Lunchapalooza. Mark your calendar and look for an email closer to the events.
Our largest fund raiser of the year is the Get Off Your Couch 5k/Fun Run.
We need SPONSORS and PARTICIPANTS. A family sponsorship is ONLY $50, and you would have your family name printed on the t-shirt to commemorate your support! Business sponsorship ranges from $95 and up. See the document below for more information regarding sponsoring this event!
