Our 5th graders took science outside today with a classic game of tug-of-war! As part of their unit on forces, students experienced firsthand how pushes and pulls, teamwork, and balanced vs. unbalanced forces affect motion. What a fun way to make science come alive!

Happy Birthday, Bolt!

What an amazing birthday celebration today!
We started the morning by saying hello to our favorite mascot, and Bolt brought the energy — dancing with us on the morning announcements!
Of course, we couldn’t miss singing a big, loud HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our birthday star!

To top it all off, today was also Picture Day — and you know Bolt gave his best birthday smile!

And the fun didn’t stop there… everyone got a special birthday treat — a sticker AND a popsicle!

Thanks for making it such a joyful and unforgettable day, Bolt!
Happy Birthday!!

We were so excited to see some of our former Minshew Colts on campus!

The Cockrill Middle School Cheerleaders stopped by to share info about their upcoming cheer clinic this weekend — and brought big smiles, loud cheers, and tons of school spirit with them!

It was truly wonderful to welcome these amazing former Colts back home.
