Way to go, Cougars!!!!

From Tiny Paws to Giant Steps, Cougars Grow in Excellence! 🐾✨

We celebrated two unforgettable milestones for our Cougar family! Our Kindergarten Tiny Paws took their first big steps in their school journey, while our 5th graders took Giant Steps toward middle school. 💙🎓

From first lessons to final elementary memories, we are so proud of how much our students have grown. Congratulations to our Kindergarten and 5th Grade Cougars — your future is bright! 🐾💛

Yearbook Signing Party and 5th grade Clap out May 20th

What a special day for our students! ✨📚🎉

Our Yearbook Signing Party and 5th Grade Clap Out was filled with laughter, memories, and lots of signatures! Students spent time signing yearbooks and autograph books, enjoying popcorn, and hanging out with staff and friends in the cafeteria one last time before the promotion ceremonies and summer break.

Afterwards, our entire school lined the halls to cheer on our 5th graders during their final parade around campus as they head off to middle school. 👏🎓

There were hugs, smiles, and a few emotional goodbyes as our school community came together to celebrate these amazing students. We are so proud of all they’ve accomplished and can’t wait to see what’s next for them! 💙💛

Field Day May 20th
Field Day was the perfect way to celebrate the end of an amazing school year! ☀️🎉

Our students had a blast participating in relay races, parachute games, inflatable obstacle courses, water bucket games, and so much more! A huge thank you to the Tucson Police Department officers who joined in on the fun by racing, playing with students, and passing out stickers. 🚓💙

Thank you to the Pima College Girls Basketball team for teaching our students how to dribble, shoot, and have fun on the court! 🏀

Thank you Wonderworld Jumping Castles for making our day EXTRA FUN!!! Wonder World Jumping Castles LLC.

We are also so grateful to Lisa Rivera for donating delicious shaved ice, Africa for creating fun balloons, all of our incredible staff who helped make the day possible, and the amazing PTO and parents who volunteered their time to support our students. 💛

And the biggest surprise of the day — the Tucson Fire Department arrived with their fire truck and cooled everyone off with the fire hose! 🚒💦 The smiles and laughter said it all.

What an unforgettable way to end the school year! 🎓✨

We would like to thank all of you for helping make our first year as a PTO incredible! Your support throughout the year has meant so much to us and has helped make every event, fundraiser, and celebration possible.

From tiny paws to giant steps, our Cougar community has truly grown in excellence together. Thank you for your time, donations, encouragement, and school spirit all year long.
