Principal’s News

May 2025
Cougar Families,
As we head into May, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued partnership and support throughout this school year. It’s hard to believe we are in the final stretch!
The week of May 12th marks an important time for our students as they begin state testing. These assessments help measure the growth and progress our students have made and provide valuable information to guide instruction in the future.
While testing is just one part of the bigger picture, it’s an opportunity for students to show what they’ve learned and how far they’ve come. We encourage every student to do their very best, stay focused, and approach each test with confidence and a positive mindset.
You can help set your student up for success by ensuring they:
Get a good night’s sleep
Eat a healthy breakfast
Arrive at school on time
Are encouraged to give their best effort.
We are so proud of the hard work our students and teachers have put in all year. Let’s finish strong!
Your child’s teacher is the best place to start if you have other questions about testing or available resources.
Athletics
Our Girls’ Volleyball team finished up their season of league play. Our 8th grade team is undefeated and our 7th grade team placed second in league play. Track is in the middle of their season as well. Go Cougars! Please look at the schedule and come cheer on our athletes!
PTC
Without the support of our PTC events like these would not be possible. If you are not currently active with our PTC I encourage you to get involved. Come to our next meeting on May 21st at 3:00 PM to see how you can be a part of this active community. Cougar Cafe has wrapped up for the season. Thank you for all of your support. Beginning this Friday our PTC will be selling popsicles after school.
Home – School Communication
Good communication between the school and home is very important to us and we are working to provide numerous ways for this good communication to take place. Please call the school office when your student is ill or cannot attend school.
Finally, please join us Friday 5/9 @ 8:45 am for our next All-School Rally. All families are encouraged to attend and celebrate with us. I look forward to seeing you there! Happy May!
