🌟🐾 TAG SUMMER PROJECTS ARE HERE… AND ALL WE CAN SAY IS WOW!!! 🤯✨

Our TAG Summer Projects came in today, and we are blown away by the creativity, curiosity, and dedication our Cougars poured into their work! 📚🔍🎨

From grade level to grade level, our students showed us just how incredible their thinking can be when they are given the opportunity to explore, research, create, and share! 🧠💡

We are SO proud of the hard work, thoughtful research, and creativity that went into each completed project. Every project tells a story of a student who was willing to dig deeper, think bigger, and bring their ideas to life! 🐾❤️💙

👏 Way to ROAR, Cougars! We can’t wait to celebrate and showcase the amazing work of our TAG scholars!

Rooted in Excellence. Growing with Purpose. 🌱✨
🐾 Cougars climb to new heights!

Something AMAZING is taking shape right outside the Capitol Heights Elementary School entrance! Our new mural is bringing our school colors, Cougar spirit, and CHES pride to life—and we are LOVING how it’s coming together! 🐾✨

This is more than a mural… it’s a welcome, a celebration, and a reflection of the ROAR that makes our school community special! 💙❤️

🚧 Still in progress… but the final masterpiece is coming SOON! We expect the mural to be completed by Monday!

Get ready, Cougars… our entrance is about to ROAR! 🐾💙❤️
