CMHS Admin Team
Civic Memorial High School is proud to announce that it has been officially recognized as an Exemplary School of Excellence, the highest designation awarded by the Illinois State Board of Education. This honor places CMHS among the top-performing high schools in the state as reported by the Illinois State Report Card, reflecting a culture of high expectations, student growth, and strong community partnerships. This designation is a first in our school’s history!
Civic Memorial’s achievement highlights the dedication of its students, teachers, staff, families, and community partners in working toward a shared vision of success. Exemplary status places Civic Memorial High School among the top 10% of schools in Illinois.
“Three years ago, when we adopted Professional Learning Communities, we made becoming an Exemplary School of Excellence a part of our school vision,” said Principal Justin Newell. “This recognition is proof that when you are ALL-In, Hard Work Pays Off! Becoming an Exemplary School of Excellence is a testament to our commitment to excellence!”

Consistent daily attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success. When students are present and engaged in class, they stay connected to their teachers, peers, and learning — which ultimately leads to better academic outcomes and stronger school habits.
Please note there is a schedule change this Friday for our SOAR Assembly. We will be adjusting class periods to accommodate the assembly so that we can celebrate our students’ accomplishments and reinforce the positive culture at CMHS.
We truly appreciate your partnership and continued support in helping your student arrive on time and ready to learn each day. Working together, we can ensure every Eagle stays on track for success!
