Cougar Nation

🌟 Cheerleader of the Week: Sophia! 🌟 Sophia jumped into cheer for the very first time this year—her senior year—and we couldn’t be more proud of her! She showed up willing to learn, ready to work, and excited to show off her Cougar spirit. Trying something totally new as a senior takes courage, and Sophia has embraced every practice, every routine, and every cheer with a positive attitude and a huge smile. We’re so grateful she chose to spend her final year shining with us. Way to go, Sophia! 💜🤍🐾

7th grade SAIL worked on their own Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade but with Spike Legos!

Last week, 3rd & 4th graders were read a true story in Cougars' Critical Thinking class (CCT) about the man who created the amazing balloons for the Macy's parade. They were tasked the job to make a balloon animal. We had engineers who had to construct a design to keep the balloon in the air and the designers who focused on the aesthetics. Mrs. Abbas' class kicked off the beginning of our parade!
