Our Junior High and High School Cheerleaders attended Cheer Camp last week, where they learned new cheers and dances, practiced their stunts, and built squad unity. This camp was led by the Tarleton Texan Cheerleaders with the leadership of our cheer sponsors, Miss Estrada (JH) and Mrs. Cormack (HS).
Our Junior High Cheer Squad consists of Stephanie Alanis, Natalie Barcenas, Taylor Butler, Emily Figueroa, Nevaeh Fraga, Lilliy Hernandez (Mascot), Milly Hughes, Emma May, and Caydee Montgomery. High School Cheer Squad members are Lily Parsons, Bella Mahone, Caitlyn Thigpen, and Emily Williams.
It's going to be a great year; thank you for putting in the work!

Summer School begins Monday! We will be following guidelines from TEA and are overjoyed to have the opportunity to teach our students face to face during summer instruction!
If you have questions about summer school, please contact your child's teacher or our office.
The end of school is the perfect occasion for a party, but that's hard to do when school has been closed and there are social distancing stipulations in place. 4th and 5th Grade teachers Mrs. Pollock, Mrs. Mallory, and Coach Cervantes had the perfect solution to that. They brought the Pizza Party to each of their students, along with uplifting signs and a whole lot of love!
