From Mrs. Thompson:
"Over the last few weeks, my students have been working on travel brochures. They got to pick their state and they had to research and make a creative and informative brochure. They did such a great job, and today to finish off the unit we got to present our brochures to Mrs. Johnson’s third grade class!😊"

Coach Cannon's high school Total Body Fitness (TBF) class participated in the 1000 step up challenge today, in honor of Veterans Day. The challenge was based off of GORUCK's Chad 1000x. The Tiger students completed the Beginner option of the challenge. GoRuck's website: GORUCK, and CrossFit present the hero workout “CHAD” - in honor of Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson who took his life on October 29, 2018 due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast wave injuries and PTSD. Our goal is to honor Chad’s life and legacy and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.
CHAD 1000X has brought together thousands of registered participants, as well as hundreds of thousands of dollars raised since 2020, looking to be part of something greater than themselves. To not only bring awareness to the epidemic of suicide, particularly among veterans, but also to help be part of the solution through the support to the The Step Up Foundation and other veteran health initiatives.
