Big two days of competition for our outdoor boys and girls track and field teams this weekend at state championships. Colin Gilstrap added to his indoor 3200m title with a D1 and Federation win in the 3200m AND he broke the school record! Kaylen Tenemille earned four medals, Collin Catherwood matched his winter finish with 6th place in the 3200m, and the boys relay team earned bronze in a very tight 4x800m relay. The top three teams were separated by only 3 seconds. Well done, Crusaders! Way to finish strong! ⭐️💪💜





Check out the progress our HS art students are making on the hallway mural. How cool! Almost done! 🎨🐠🦑🐙





WISHING GOOD LUCK AT STATES TO OUR CRUSADER TRACK & FIELD TEAMS! You've got this!
