Congratulations to the 16-1 Lady Lions that are currently ranked #3 in Class 1A State Volleyball.
What an AMAZING day of volleyball! ❤️ We are building something great, and days like today are proof of that! Every girl got time on the court, stepped up, and contributed to our success. We played disciplined defense, trusted each other, and competed as a TEAM! 💪🏻
Proud of this group and the direction we’re headed! The hard work is paying off, and we’re just getting started! 🔥
A GREAT DAY TO BE A LION! 🦁

Congratulations to our Elementary Artists of the Week!
Kindergarten Pop Art Snow Cones: Kamila. Students learned how to make all colors of the rainbow using only primary colors.
2nd Grade Pop Art Cheeseburgers: Jacob. Students learned how to shade from dark to light and cut out shapes into a collage.
5th Grade Eileen Corse Swimming Child (couldn’t pick one!): Emily, Samantha, Xrislynn, and Kourtney. Students learned "impressionistic" art using light brush strokes and forming complex figures from simple shapes.
A huge shout-out to Mrs. Bickel for the creative fun that she brings to our elementary art program.
After the final round of the 2A State Championships, Swink Golf walks away proud. Freshman Brody Bauserman finishes 35th (T-4th among Freshman) and Senior Kaleb Malden finishes 65th. These were really strong performances for two first-time qualifiers. Great season for these two young men and thank you to the coaches!
Congratulations to the Artists of the Week--Briggs and Cassidy.
The 8th graders created nameplates out of clay that tell a little bit about themselves.

Elementary students learned about Fire Prevention and Safety today. One station included a trailer where students were able to touch a door to determine if it was hot from a fire, along with a stove that created smoke to set off a smoke detector, so students would evacuate to a safe location. The second station was to learn more about firefighters.
Thank you to Fire Chief Brad Davidson and the La Junta Fire Department for putting this very valuable and educational experience on for our students.
