Girls, check this out!
We are excited about the rapid growth of girls' wrestling since it became sanctioned as a high school sport four years ago and we want to provide an inexpensive opportunity for girls in our community to try a sport that we firmly believe builds self-esteem and resilience.

Our Good News Call of the Day is Kaysen Covington.
She was nominated by Teacher Miss Melby and this is what she had to say about Kaysen: "Before school, one of Kaysen’s peers sat on the floor looking upset. Many other students passed by without saying anything, but Kaysen stopped to see if she could help this student. She asked her about what was wrong, offered thoughtful solutions to the problem, and lent a caring ear to this student who needed someone to talk to. Kaysen could’ve easily just walked by this student, but took time out of her morning to make sure the student was okay."
Congratulations Kaysen - we are so proud of you!
