Cougar Weekly Update
February 15, 2019
Principal's Message
The 100th day of school is marked at Cougar by many different activities celebrating the number 100. It was wonderful to see so many different representations of 100 on shirts and in different projects created throughout the building on this special day! Thanks to all of the teachers who created special opportunities for our students! We also enjoyed sharing Valentine's Day with our friends. It has been a busy week of celebrations!
