Yesterday during Grizzly Time, our Grizzly Grippers arm wrestling team had an incredible enrichment session with special guests Adam Hoing and our very own Paul Elmore from the Port City Pullers! 🐻

These Wilmington arm wrestling pros shared their expertise, techniques, and passion for the sport with our athletes. Our Grippers soaked up every bit of knowledge and are ready to put it to work!

A huge THANK YOU to Mr. Hoing and the entire Port City Pullers team for investing your time in our students. We appreciate you supporting the next generation of arm wrestlers! 🙌

🐻📚 Grizzly Reading Challenge Alert! 📚🐻

Today is looking chilly with some great college football on TV, but don't forget — our Cape Fear Middle Grizzlies still have a reading challenge to conquer!

Whether you're curled up with a blanket during halftime or finding a cozy reading nook, let's keep those pages turning. Our Grizzlies are readers AND champions! 💙📖

Who's accepting the challenge this weekend? 🙌

📚 Book Hunt Time! 📚

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone and CFMS is still enjoying break, it's the PERFECT time for a book scavenger hunt! 🔍

Check under beds, in backpacks, in cars, and those mysterious spots where books love to hide. Found a library book (or two... or three)? Great! Bring them back on Monday, December 1st when we return to school.

No stress, no fines—just happy reunions between books and shelves! 📖✨

See you Monday!

Search everywhere for those missing/lost books.
🐻 Grizzlies, don't forget! 🐻

As you enjoy your Thanksgiving feast and settle in to watch some football today, remember our reading challenge is STILL GOING! 📚🏈

Turkey and touchdowns are great, but pages and progress are even better! Grab a book during halftime or before bed and keep those reading minutes adding up.

Go Grizzlies! 💙🩶
