Junior High students recently took a break from MAP testing to focus on something just as important, building a strong school community. Through collaboration and meaningful discussions, students utilized durable skills like collaboration, communication, and critical thinking to work together in developing the core values that matter most to them. These values will help shape expectations and guide how we support one another every day. It was inspiring to see our students engaged, thoughtful, and committed to creating a positive environment for all. Great work, everyone! #gocougars #portraitofacougar

Jr. High science students wrapped up MAP testing week with a hands-on STEM challenge! Working collaboratively, students designed and built towers using only spaghetti and tape. Students put their problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills to the test. There were several creative and unique designs across the room, showing off both innovation and persistence. The tallest tower of the day reached an impressive 112 cm! 👏 Great work to all of our students for thinking outside the box and finishing the week strong!

Jr. High students celebrated the end of MAP testing week with a fun-filled kickball showdown—7th grade vs. 8th grade! Both teams brought energy and teamwork! After a great game, the 8th graders came out on top with the victory… but something tells us a rematch might be in order! A great way to wrap up a week of hard work!

Highland Cougar JR high track teams had a great night Thursday at their home meet. The girls placed 3rd and the boys placed 5th overall. Go Cougars 🤎💛
