Athletics
Parents, we are having an athletic interest meeting this Thursday at 5:30pm in the CFMS media center for all students interested in trying out for softball, football(7th and 8th graders only) and cheerleading. We want to help you with the transition to Big Teams Student Central for physical forms and all the necessary paperwork to compete in athletics. Hard copies from physicals last year will be there to collect so you can have them to complete the Big Teams Student Central process. All students/parents will need to complete this process before trying out for a team. These two documents, https://5il.co/2rroz or Spanish version https://5il.co/2rrp0 , will guide you through the process.
Football and Softball practice/tryouts will start August 19th. Football practice will be from 3 to 5 on the 19th. Softball practice time is 6-8pm. Cheerleading tryouts will start August 27th from 3 to 4:30pm. The following links are updated football and softball schedules.
Please make sure to have an up to date physical and complete the preparticipation forms before tryouts. English version: Physical Form Spanish version: Physical Form - Spanish version

ENHANCING PARENT-TEACHER COMMUNICATION: INTRODUCING PENDER COUNTY SCHOOLS APP'S NEW FEATURES
We are continuously working to improve and simplify communication between you and Cape Fear Middle School. Keeping up with your child’s coursework and their teachers directly impacts their well-being both in the classroom and at home. Effective school communication plays a significant role in this process, but it often isn't as simple and accessible as it could be.
That’s what we’re working to solve. This year, we’re excited to continue our Rooms feature in our district app, now in its second year of implementation. Rooms enables you to have two-way parent-teacher conversations and keep up with classroom announcements. Please click on this link, CFMS Rooms Letter to Parents and Guardians , to read more information on how to stay connected with our school.
