In a lively start to the school year, Coronado Middle School (CMS) is buzzing with activities and community updates. The KCS News broadcast, hosted by students Jacob Vogel and Mason Tree, highlighted several key events and local news that resonate with the CMS community.

One of the most exciting announcements was the opening of Pop Pops, a new ice cream shop that has taken over the former Parakeet Smoothie Shop location. This marks the third branch for the popular ice cream brand, which is known for its wide variety of flavors, including non-dairy options, ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy. This addition is expected to bring joy to local families and students alike, providing a sweet spot for after-school treats.

In school news, CMS is gearing up for a series of assemblies, with sixth graders attending today, followed by seventh and eighth graders later in the week. These gatherings are an important part of the school culture, fostering community spirit and engagement among students.

Additionally, the yearbook team shared an important reminder about early purchases. The yearbooks are currently available at a 10% discount, and students are encouraged to buy them before September to take advantage of this offer. Each purchase includes two free custom pages, which must be completed by April 24 to be included in the final print.

As the broadcast wrapped up, the hosts wished a happy birthday to student Harper Alpert, reinforcing the sense of community and celebration at CMS. With a focus on ownership, integrity, and respect, the school year is off to a promising start, filled with opportunities for students to connect and engage with their peers and the wider community.
