🎁 SHS Bulldog Angel Tree 🎁
Our Angel Tree is full of Bulldogs who could use a little extra love this holiday season. We still have many angels waiting to be adopted! If you’d like to make a difference, feel free to stop by the high school and pick up an angel. Thank you for helping us spread kindness and joy this Christmas! ❤️

When you can’t beat the cold… you join it! ❄️🍦
Our students made homemade ice cream today — the perfect (and tastiest!) way to learn how to follow a recipe.
They quickly learned that if you don’t follow each step exactly, you might end up with a mini “combustion” and some pretty questionable ice cream on your hands! 😂

School Picture Day tomorrow!!

Shoutout to our amazing FCCLA students!
On Friday, they planned and hosted a career fair for over 300 students at Marrs Elementary! Our students took the initiative to design the entire event themselves—creating eight stations with real-life, hands-on activities representing different careers. They managed the day with grace, teamwork, and flexibility, even when things didn’t go exactly as planned. Special recognition goes to Kasslyn Payne, Hanah Gruenwald, and Nash Roberts for their leadership in creating and organizing the event.

This week we are doing one of our favorite FACS class project! We are making monster pals for MARRs Kindergarten students! The kindergarten classes got to make and design their own monsters, and our FACS students used sewing skills to make their monsters come to life!
