2. Yearbooks are on sale now and will be selling through February 28th. Get them while they last. Yearbooks are $33 and a great way to hold on to lasting memories for years to come.
3. Last night the Lady Cougars fought to the final buzzer against the Kopachuck Coyotes.
- Highlights from the 8th-grade game include gritty defense by Sophia Arglen and Eeva Markwith, excellent offense from Berlin Lyman and Adlee Wardean, and vital teamwork and support from Serenity Purjue, Daisy Boman, and Evelyn McAllister. Great job ladies!
- Highlights from the 7th-grade game are the all-around improvement on offense and defense from a week ago. Lily Brockert and Mercy Ice showed leadership and courage, Talia Faulkner showed determination to get her team points, and Lily Stewart, Maddyson Nieman, Haylee Hernandez, and Harper Bows all gained more confidence on the floor. Excellent job 7th grade!
We look forward to celebrating your successes against Goodman on Thursday. Go Cougs!"
