Are you ready for the A-C Field Day - first race is set and on the way! Come join in the fun!
State Track update! Dellana got 10th in the 100-meter hurdles. This means she is in the top 10 for 1A hurdlers in the state. Congrats, Dellana!
Life throws a lot at us — and having the right tools can make all the difference. One powerful (and simple!) technique I’ve been exploring lately is called The Pendulum Technique.
🌀 It’s a somatic practice that helps gently guide your nervous system from a state of stress or overwhelm back toward calm and balance.
🔄 How it works:
You mindfully shift your attention between a distressing sensation or memory and a neutral or pleasant one — like the rhythm of a pendulum. This back-and-forth helps your body learn it’s safe to return to a regulated state, building resilience over time.
💡 Think of it like emotional weightlifting: each “rep” builds strength in handling stress without getting stuck in it.
Whether you're managing anxiety, burnout, or just a tough day, this is one more gentle, grounded way to support yourself. 🌿

🎉🐾 Our LAST Panther Claw of the year! 🐾🎉
It was the perfect way to wrap up an amazing year—with the 6th graders joining us to celebrate and end on a high note! The energy, the pride, the unity… what a send-off!
But don’t get too comfortable—our Heads of Houses are meeting this summer to plan something BIG. Get ready for the most epic House Party in all of Wyoming when we return this fall!
You won’t want to miss it.

🏏📚 Move Up Day Fun with 4th & 5th Grade! 📚🏏
Today, the 4th graders joined Mr. B in the 5th grade classroom for Move Up Day, and the theme was all about the international sport of cricket!
They explored the game through reading and math activities in the morning and then had an absolute blast learning how to play in the afternoon! What a fun way to learn, connect, and get excited for what’s ahead! 🐾

Quick facts about Mental Health
Despite progress in mental health initiatives, more than 30 million people in the U.S. still lack access to comprehensive, high-quality care. These statistics highlight the ongoing need for Mental Health Awareness Month and the importance of bringing attention to this disparity:
1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness each year.
1 in 20 U.S. adults experience serious mental illness each year.
1 in 6 U.S. youth have a mental health condition, but only half receive treatment.
50% of all lifetime mental illness begins by age 14, and 75% by age 24.
In 2023, 20% of all high school students seriously considered suicide.
