Congratulations to our January 13th weekly Cougar Paw Winners.
BE SAFE-BE KIND-BE RESPONSIBLE!



During Primary Ignite Class, students learned about and built symmetrical snow crystals, honored Martin Luther King Jr. and his work by building a speaking platform and built models of wintery places/activities. SO MUCH LEARNING HAPPENING!





During Paraprofessional Recognition Week, January 20th–24th, we celebrated our amazing paraprofessionals. We are truly grateful for their dedication and the invaluable support they provide to our students and staff every single day.


Congratulations to our 7-12 January Students of the Month! These students exemplify Cougar Pride!
