What is MOUSE?

MOUSE, which stands for Members of the United Students of Elementary, is the CIC Elementary School student government. The purpose of MOUSE is to:

promote school spirit and good citizenship;
involve students in sharing ideas to make CIC the best it can be;
help all students work together in school;
give students practice in democracy in action; and
help other citizens and groups in our school community.

Representatives from each class are elected to MOUSE and from those representatives, MOUSE members elect the officers. See MOUSE in action and meet our members and officers!

Each month, we try to have a Spirit Day (see pictures from some of this year's Spirit Days), usually the last Friday of the month, in which the students dress according to the theme of the day (pajama day, twin day, etc.) and a MOUSE fundraiser, to raise money to donate to other causes and groups.

Future Activities

Spirit Days

We have one final Spirit Day which will take place on the last day of school! Check out the photos here for the Spirit Days we've had thus far.

June 13: Hawaiian/Beach Day

Fundraising Events
Thanks for all of your support of all our fundraisers this year. We hope to buy some new playground equipment with the money we have raised!

MOUSE and Hi-C Party

This year, MOUSE members decided they wanted a bowling party. We had a lot of fun - I think the only complaint was that it was too short!

Getting the bowling shoes for everyone.

Students displayed lots of bowling styles!

Friends were there to help each other with their techniques.

Aitor had a little trouble getting his regular shoes on (or was it Mrs. Metcalf who was having the trouble?)

On the bus on the way back to school.

Campfire, April 18

We had our second annual Campfire in April. We had a lot of fun singing around the fire, roasting hot dogs and marshmallows, making s'mores and playing Shipwreck!
