“Raiders Caught Being Good” is an incentive for displaying positive behavior.  CAM Middle School Staff give students a “Raider Card” when students are displaying positive behavior.  This incentive is not for academics or middle school expectations, but for above and beyond positive behaviors.  Some of those behaviors we are looking to catch CAM Students displaying are the following: Integrity, Sincerity, Honesty, Effort, and Respect for themselves, their peers, and staff.
Congrats RAIDERS!!

Red Ribbon Week: Red Ribbon Week is schedule for October 24 – October 28. Central A & M Middle School will participate in numerous Red Ribbon Week activities this year from Oct. 24 through Oct. 28.    There will be a different theme each day of the week.  Monday’s theme will be “Tough Enough to Say No;” Tuesday’s theme will be “Sock It To Drugs;” Wednesday’s theme will be “Aim to Be Drug Free;”  Thursday’s theme will be “Sparkle and Shine, Drug Free;” and Friday’s Theme will be “You Don’t Stand a Ghost of a Chance with Drugs.” 

There will be dress-up days to illustrate several of the themes.  Students will have the opportunity to answer questions for prizes and participate in guessing games.  Several local law enforcement agents will speak to students one day during health classes.  Students may also view videos detailing the risks and consequences of drug abuse.

Family and friends are asked to encourage students to participate in Red Ribbon Week activities.  This special week is also a good reminder to keep open the lines of communication and to frequently discuss the dangers of drug, alcohol, and tobacco use.
