What an incredible performance by our Wootton Cluster teachers, principals, and community leaders as they took on the Harlem Wizards! Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer and support our schools, and make the event such a success.
A special shout-out to our CJMS All-Stars — Mr. Lee, Mr. Lauer, Ms. McDonnell, and Mr. Tejo — who brought the energy and shined on the court. They truly brought their A-game. Check out their moves!
Our thoughts are with the entire Wootton community during this extremely difficult time. If you are looking for a way to help, Wootton PTSA is collecting monetary donations to help provide meals and snacks to staff and guests who are supporting staff and students after this week’s events.
Donations of any amount are welcome and appreciated. Add “teacher support meal” to the memo line. Donate to the Wootton PTSA via PayPal. Thank you for supporting the Wootton community.
Bring the family, invite friends, and let Gregorio’s do the cooking. Join the CJMS community for Restaurant Night at Gregorio’s Trattoria in Cabin John Village and enjoy a delicious meal while giving back to our school.
When you dine in or order takeout, a portion of the sales will be donated to the CJMS PTSA, helping support school programs, student activities, and community events. It’s an easy (and tasty!) way to make a difference. We hope to see you there!
Get ready for fast breaks, big laughs, and nonstop fun as the Harlem Wizards face off against CJMS staff and other Wootton cluster teachers! We are excited to share that Mr. Lee, Mr. Tejo, and Mr. Lauer will be participating in the upcoming game! We invite our school community to come out and support them. All Cabin John Middle School students are encouraged to attend and join in the fun. Purchase Tickets Here!

The Minority Scholars Program (MSP) will be sponsoring the Third Annual Youth Anti-Racist Film Festival in conjunction with Documentary Film Experts, Listen Tell Media. MSP recognizes that if we are truly going to create an anti-racist school system, then it will take the voice and the power of the youth. Over the years, the power of visual media has become increasingly evident. And MSP student leaders have learned how to use their cell phones to create “Street Documentaries” as a method to push for change within our schools and communities. The trend has been spreading, and our 3rd Annual Film Festival is gearing up to be our largest one yet. We have already received 70 film submissions from across the elementary, middle and high schools, of which 15 finalists will be selected to be aired on the big screen. The film festival hopes to encourage, harness the energy of, and give voice to students as a creative means to push for positive change in our school system and across the county.
Come on out and see what these brilliant, young changemakers have put on film!
Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) has released a Math Policy that reimagines how students become college and career-ready. One part of the Math Policy requires the implementation of the Numeracy Development Framework. This identifies competencies for PreK-8 mathematics that students need to know each year.
MCPS will be hosting a meeting on the upcoming policy update tonight, Thursday, February 5, from 6:30-7:45 via Zoom. If you are interested in viewing the framework in advance, you can use this link for direct access. In addition, you can find out more about our MCPS math program by viewing the slide presentation as well as the summary from the recent MCCPTA Math Night.
Mcode is a club where students will learn the foundations of computer science and the basics of programming languages, such as Python, and will use those skills in fun projects and exercises.
Multiple classes are available at Cabin John for students with varying levels of computer science experience. The beginner Python class is open to all and teaches the fundamentals of computer science through the widely-used and popular programming language Python. Students will be given projects to help them develop their programming skills as well as logical and problem-solving skills. The intermediate Python class builds on the skills taught in the beginner class as students learn to build data structures, create games and projects, and learn Object-Oriented Programming. This club is completely free, and students will need nothing but their laptops or school-provided Chromebooks for either class. Interested students will have the opportunity to participate in fun activities like Coding Fests!
Date/Time: Weekly on Thursdays, from 3:15 pm to 4:15 pm
Location: Beginner Class Room 1213 – Intermediate Class Room 1201.
