Students also develop a life-long love of sport and physical fitness. CMS students represent themselves and their school well in athletic competition. As in most other competitions that CMS students participate in, many championships and awards are taken home by the student athletes at Crane Middle School.

BAND CMS students participating in the band program at CMS not only learn to play an instrument really well under the tutelage of our dedicated staff, they also gain valuable experience in working with others. The CMS Band also affords students opportunities to perform in public and test their skills against other students in the state. The band regularly brings home the best ratings for both group and individual performances.
STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council at CMS consists of officers and representatives chosen by the student body. Other students volunteer to be a part of this organization that works to serve and represent the school. The student council sponsors activities to promote school spirit and also encourages students to become more civic in their activities away from school.
