The results are officially in, and the Dogwood Wolfpack has been on the move! This week, our 6th Graders have proven they are truly the leaders of the pack, securing a massive 1st Place victory with a stellar 74% attendance rate. They are currently setting the pace for excellence in the halls! Not far behind, our 7th Graders snagged 2nd Place with a solid 70%, showing exactly what it means to be consistent and committed to the Den. Meanwhile, our 8th Graders are holding down 3rd Place at 67%, we know you’ve got that "Alpha" energy in you, 8th grade, so let's see if you can climb the ranks next week! Whether you’re leading the way or finding your rhythm, remember: the P.A.C.K. is only at its strongest when every wolf is present. Let's keep that momentum moving toward 100%! 🐺✨🐾

Please consider nominating yourselves or someone you know.
