A huge thank you to Mr. Krueger, Mr. Baloun and Mr. Weber who took time out of their busy schedules to volunteer as a WATCH D.O.G this week! We appreciate your energy, kindness, and commitment to our students and school community—thank you for being such positive role models!

This week, our 5th graders had an exciting opportunity to visit Hill, Still, and Granger Middle Schools for a special sneak peek at their future schools!

They explored the buildings, met staff, and got a feel for what’s ahead as they prepare for this big step. It was a day full of curiosity, energy, and smiles—and a great way to build excitement for middle school!

Are you looking for a fun way to honor your child’s birthday? Donate a book to the Cowlishaw library! Submit the information at any time during the school year and we will invite your child to choose a book from the Birthday Book Club cart during the month of their birthday (or half-birthday)!
