Student Resources
With the CLMS web site, we hope to provide our students with resources you can use to find out more about what’s happening at school and to expand your world of learning using the Internet.
We will keep you informed about what’s going on in areas from academics to athletics.
You’ll find links to resources such as information for your Team, Internet resources recommended by your teachers and fun places for learning.

The following links will provide more in-depth information for students, as well as, parents to better know how to handle bullying situations.
