Cougar Track & Field

Congratulations to our Cal Young Track & Field team on their incredible season. Thursday, they competed against the other 7 middle schools in the districts for the annual District Championship. For the first time in 4J history, one middle school walked away with the trophy in 5 of the 6 divisions.

THIS Thursday, 5/14 is our first annual Family Fun Night! Join us for food trucks, face painting, BINGO, challenge games, and prizes! 6-8pm. If you can volunteer for 1 hour and play for the other, we would appreciate it! Sign up here. If 150 people attend, Mr Young will get a pie in the face! Help us make that happen!

Thanks for your support!

Thank you for supporting CYMS PTO! We raised $63.61 through our Chipotle meal night and had 42 bags of bottles dropped off totaling $288. 

CYMS Food Pantry

Our food pantry is depleted. We could use canned protein (tuna or chicken), peanut butter, canned fruits and veggies, and crackers. You can also send gift cards to Winco or Walmart and we can purchase items to send home. We have 6 more weeks where we will be helping send home 8-10 backpacks to Cal Young families in need.

Messages from the Cal Young Kitchen Staff

As the month goes on we will be working diligently to make the delicious nutritious menu for next school year. We appreciate your support during these times. I know a lot of you have been paying attention to the meetings to the community and board about potential meals we will be serving next school year and we will be trying our hardest to get meals that our students will appreciate that are nutritious.

Fun Facts

Eating breakfast every day helps improve your memory and helps you focus better in class.

Trivia Question: True or False?

Frozen fruit is just as healthy for you as fresh fruit.

Answer: True! Frozen fruits are picked and frozen at their "peak ripeness", which locks in all their vitamins.

Science Snippet

Protein is often called the "building block" of the body because it helps repair your tissues and build muscle.
