This past weekend, the Screamin' Eagles Drumline proudly marched in the Cottonwood Rodeo Parade, showcasing their talent and school spirit. The students performed exceptionally well and represented our school with pride. Mr. Wohlrabe expressed much pride in this group's progress.
A special thank you goes to Mr. Costa, who generously visited the school the day before the parade to adjudicate the group. His feedback provided valuable insights, and the students walked away with suggestions on how they could further improve their performance.
We are excited about the growth of our drumline and look forward to future performances!

WV Ceramics Bring First Graders’ Monsters to Life
The Ceramics class recently completed a creative collaboration with our North Cottonwood first graders. Using the students’ original monster drawings, the WV ceramics students brought the creatures to life as 3D ceramic sculptures.
Next Monday, the high school students will introduce the finished creations to the North Cottonwood first-grade artists who inspired them. This fun and meaningful project not only showcased artistic talent but also helped build memorable connections across grade levels.

Senior Softball Night
Senior Softball Night
Last week, the Lady Eagles Softball Team celebrated Senior Night, honoring four seniors: Brooke Ehn, Taylor Lowe, Mem McDougall, and Eve Middendorf. Before the game against Yreka, each senior was introduced and walked to the first baseline with their parents. One of the most memorable moments of the night was the "Last Catch," where each senior played catch with their dad—a tradition that brought a lot of emotion to the field.
A major highlight of the game came when Mem McDougall hit her first-ever out-of-the-park home run, creating an unforgettable moment in her final home game. The game was full of energy and emotion as the seniors took the field one last time.
We're grateful to our Senior Lady Eagles for their commitment to the program and the example they've set for their teammates.
Senior Athlete Signing Day will take place on May 28th from 4:30 to 6:00 PM in the West Valley Library.
