Our CMS Special Olympians were informed this morning that Special Olympics wasn't going to happen due to weather. So, their peers packed the gym and cheered them on as they competed in the softball throw and the 50 yd dash. We are so proud of our CMS student body and our Special Olympians. They all did a great job today!!!!
