January is Birth Defects Awareness Month. In support, we are encouraging students and staff to wear blue and pink attire to school every Wednesday in January. Have a great evening!


Shout out to our UIL Chess Team for a great performance this past weekend at the Cathey Middle School Tournament! The Challenger's K-1 and Elementary teams placed 3rd! Individually, Jeidiah Rocha placed 5th in K-1, Diego Vallejo placed 7th in Elementary Champ, and Joshua Lozano placed 10th in Elementary U400. Great job everyone!



We hope everyone is staying warm out there! Through Thursday the 18th, our students are invited to bring a blanket or stuffed animal to help keep them cozy while they learn!
