Congratulations to our Student of the Week for September 6, 2024

Niyah was voted by her peers, and she is very well respected at her young age. She is quiet and always has a smile on her face. Her peers said “she was kind, honest, a good listener, and an amazing part of her group. We love her here at CGM.

Congratulations to our very first Student of the Week for August 19, 2024.

We hope everyone is reminded of how loved they are by the one who created us. Happy Easter!

The kids love it when Jill Wadsworth comes with ingredients, a new recipe, and some chef hats! They get to not only be chefs for a day but taste testers too. :)

Getting everyone to smile simultaneously is a lot harder than you would think.

We are so excited to share some special moments from this year at Common Ground Ministries. :) Come volunteer with us and join the family!

CGM will remain closed today due to the cold and WISD closure.

Thank you, Mr. Ashely, Ms. Anita, & Mrs. DeShawn

We enjoyed our new popcorn machine today at CGM. Thank you so much Bank of America and Mr. Sheriff for the donation. We also received a brand new ice machine from them and will have it installed very soon. Our local businesses, board members and donors are amazing.

We finally have our phone number back active. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but CGM phone number is still deactivated due to Verizon’s inability to connect a cell phone to its net work. We are changing our carrier to Google Voice with the same phone number, but it takes 30 days for them to port in a number. TECHNOLOGY, smh. Thank you for your patience.

If you need me, please email me at [email protected] or click on the message button below and I will respond.

Thank you Ashley Spurlock.

I apologize if you have called or text me, my phone has died. It may be a couple of days before I get a new one.

To the knuckle heads Saturday evening who bent our gate and came in to play basketball. You should be ashamed of yourselves for breaking our childrens goal. Stupidity is running rampant.

We say congratulations to our CGM 5th graders Braelyn & Jaylon

CGM is wrapping up its 20222-2023 school year. We love our children.
