Dear Families and Caregivers,
Summer break is a whirlwind of sun-soaked adventures, cherished moments with family, and unforgettable fun with friends. Although summer is filled with the excitement of time off, some educational side effects may occur if not targeted. The “summer slide” is a term used to describe the learning loss that happens when students are not in school.

6th grade field trip day 2!
Reeves Witte, Garrett Cumbow, Sutton Shrunk got permission to pull this off as a little prank on the teachers from the class of 2026.
In a prank that will go down in school history, Reeves Witte, Garrett Cumbow, Sutton Shrunk, surprised staff by setting up a full cattle corral right in the teacher parking lot—complete with a few very confused (but well-behaved) guests.
All in good fun and plenty of laughs, this one definitely earns a spot among the all-time great senior pranks. Safe to say… no one will be forgetting this anytime soon.
Will next year's class raise the . . . . steaks?
