🍬🎃 Sweet Science in Action! 🎃🍬
Our 7th Grade Enrichment students put their creativity (and candy) to the test! Each student launched pieces of Halloween candy down the hallway to see which design could make it the farthest. 🚀🍭
It was a perfect mix of fun, problem-solving, and a little friendly competition — with plenty of laughter along the way!

Last week, some of our students had the incredible opportunity to attend the FFA National Convention in Indianapolis! 🇺🇸
During the event, students explored at least three college booths of interest and attended two engaging student workshops — all while connecting with FFA members and advisors from across the country. A few even took on the fun challenge of finding students from all 50 states!
With over 73,000 members in attendance, it was an unforgettable experience for both our students and advisors. We’re so proud of their excitement for leadership, learning, and growth through FFA!

Last Friday marked the kickoff of our RCA House Challenge for the year, and what an exciting start! The relay race was fast-paced and intense, with all the Houses battling neck and neck the entire time. In the end, Rêveur pulled ahead to claim the victory! 🐺🏆🔥
The RCA House system brings our students together through friendly competition, teamwork, and school spirit—and this first challenge showed just how much pride and determination our Panthers have. Huge shoutout to everyone who participated and cheered on their Houses. We can’t wait to see what the next challenge brings!
