Happy Paraprofessional Appreciation Day! Today we celebrate our incredible paraprofessionals! Their patience, compassion and dedication make a difference in countless lives every single day. They support, uplift and inspire our students in ways that don't always get seen-- but are always felt.

We are so grateful for everything they do. Our school is better because of them!

Kindergarten was finally able to wrap up our Seasons and Weather unit last week by making windsocks. We went outside to see if we could figure out which way the wind was coming from and then they had a blast creating their own wind while racing around the slab! 😄

In Mr. Nutt's health class, the 8th grade final project was to prepare a presentation in groups to promote a health/safety topic for an elementary class. In addition, many of the groups included interactive activities, presentations with important information, and creative videos to teach the younger generations of students at CO-U about these safety topics in health education. Some of the health/safety topics were self-confidence, eating healthy, fire safety, stranger danger, bullying, and internet safety. Lastly, the best part was how the 8th grade students took control of their learning and provided guidance to the younger students about good safety/healthy practices! Overall, all the groups did a fantastic job presenting and sharing valuable lessons for the elementary students in the CO-U building! Great work 8th graders!! Go BOBCATS!!! 🐾🐾
