Good evening, Cranberry and Freedom Trail families. This is Mrs. Dellinger. I’m calling because one of our own teachers needs us right now. Mr. Ben McKinney is in the hospital in Asheville, and his family could use our support.
Tomorrow, Friday, November 13, both schools are holding a Pajama and Hat Day to help Mr. Ben and his family. Students can bring one dollar to wear a hat, three dollars to wear pajamas, or five dollars to wear both. If your family is able to help, please get those pajamas and hats ready tonight. Every dollar will make a difference.

We’re grateful for our partnership with the State Employees Credit Union for taking the time to visit Cranberry Middle School and invest in our students!

Thank you, SECU, for making a positive impact at CMS!
