We would like to recognize our students who represented our school at the speech meet on Tuesday at Rochelle Middle School. Competing in speech takes a great deal of courage - standing in front of others, sharing your voice, and putting yourself out there is no small task. These students demonstrated bravery, preparation, and confidence as they performed and represented our school with pride. We are proud of their willingness to step outside of their comfort zones and showcase their talents. Thank you for representing our school so well and good luck at the rest of your meets!

Congratulations to our Students of the Week for February 23, 2026!
You wrapped up the month in style — working hard, shining bright, and giving February something to brag about on its way out. If months could clap, February would be giving you a standing ovation (with mittens on 🧤).
