Middle School

Yesterday was Wacky Clothes Wednesday for Red Ribbon Week — and our students and staff went all out! From Hawaiian shirts and cheetah print to tutus, cowboy hats, and mismatched socks, our halls were filled with color, creativity, and Panther spirit. Don't forget - tomorrow is costume day. Students will still be expected to follow the dress code. In addition, please no blood, masks, face paint, or toy weapons.

To kick off Red Ribbon Week, our SROs and local police officers joined us for an assembly featuring exciting K9 demonstrations. Our incredible cheer team, band, and choir added to the energy, making it a fun and memorable celebration that encouraged students to live drug-free! #Limitless

A super smash bros tournament?? Say less! Thank you, Siloam Springs Public Library, for hosting free AND fun events for students to attend.

In Ms. Marlatt’s class, students have been hard at work on their Book Club Character Autopsy project! They’re bringing their favorite characters to life through over 5-foot-tall illustrations that showcase each character’s thoughts, environment, dreams, beliefs, conflicts, and more. Good work, MS! #Limitless
