One more from Area track!...Girls 1600m
Our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders have been learning in so many fun and creative ways. Mrs. Koenning brought in excitement through games, while Mrs. Solano stole their brains with stations and candy! Then, our very own pharmacist, Mrs. Wilburn, grabbed their attention with creativity in science!
If you didn’t know, these kiddos took their first STAAR test yesterday. These pictures are just one example of the hard work put in by our staff and students, which drives our amazing academic outcomes.
It's a great day to be a Bearkat!
Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders had a blast relaxing and recharging before STAAR testing season. Way to go, Kats!

5th Grade reading is revving up for the STAAR with turbo-charged excitement!
Our students are zooming through a STAAR Kart race, where scoring 80% or above gives their kart a shiny new star! They're racing full throttle and having a blast along the way! And guess what? There’s a twist—students have a power-up sheet to unleash their inner speed demons! From zipping into first place, launching a sneaky red shell, to swiping an item, it's a wild ride! Plus, we revved up the fun with a STAARbucks pit stop! Our little racers enjoyed chocolate milk topped with whipped cream and a sweet treat while they hit the books!
We know they rocked their test today!
More Area Track!
