It was a busy week in the lives of our intermediate Bobcats. Our students enjoyed a week full of special dress days to celebrate School Counselor Week. 6th graders had guests speakers present to them as they begin to dive into their Market Day projects and today all of our Bobcats enjoyed a Mini-Mini Thon kick off assembly presented by some of our high school students. Have a wonderful weekend!
