Mrs. Baker's class would like to thank Rebecca Frerking for sponsoring our classroom with Washington Farm Bureau. The students made no bake pumpkin pie in a cup and learned what Farm Bureau does for our community.
November clubs concluded today for our 3rd through 6th grade students. This month students chose between making fabric pumpkins, designing balloon cars, and doing basketball drills. Thank you to Traci Turner for organizing our monthly clubs and to Bobby Smith, Steve Wright, Jenna Stevenson, Julisa Mader, Kelli Diederich, and Lainie Doll for running the different clubs.
Washington County Scholars Bowl had our first Varsity Meet in Abilene last week. The team represented WCHS very well by going 4 - 2 in the pool play, advancing to finals. We finished 4th overall to some really competitive teams with several 5A and 4A high schools in the event. Very proud of this crew and their effort!

It's a great day when the 5th grade band come to perform during Mrs. Baker's math class. The 4th graders were impressed with the ability of these band kids when they have only been in band about 15 weeks.
You just can't hide our (LADY) TIGER pride!!

The Ruby Reds did not make the top 6 of 14 to advance to finals. We left it all on the mat and put on a good show. It was fantastic to have some familiar faces in the crowd. Thank you, Tigers fans!!
While we didn't advance, we did significantly raise our score from last year by 22.14 points. Our fight song was the greatest improvement making up 13 points from 2023. (Insane level of improvement.)
Stacy and I are incredibly proud of this squad. Make sure you make it to our first basketball game to check out the routine.
GO TIGERS!!
Good morning! Competition day is finally here. The Ruby Reds had their final prep practice on Thursday and got an amazing surprise from Timberstruck, Brian and Traci Turner, and Tim and Lisa Zenger. Personalized yoga mats and bag tags were given to them along with pictures and notes from some of the elementary students.
Thank you all for the support!
Go tigers!!! #rubyreds108
