In 1972, President Richard Nixon signed a proclamation declaring October 6th, as National Coaches Day. In it President Nixon stated: “Coaches are highly qualified teachers—in highly specialized fields. But more than that, they are friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attitudes that will serve them all their lives.” A HUGE Thank You to all of our Cougar Coaching Staff! Go Cougars!! https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/STATUTE-86/pdf/STATUTE-86-Pg1669.pdf

8th grade students have been reading "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton in Mrs Ratz's Class. "The Outsiders" teaches us lessons about stereotypes and identity. On Tuesday, students read chapter 9, which featured the big rumble between greasers and Socials. Students had a great time channeling the 1950's and dressing up for the day!

Last week, Mrs. Runyon's 6th Graders created structures and tested them to see if they could survive an earthquake!
