🖤🖤 HOMECOMING COLOR WARS! 🖤🖤
Our Senior Class and Preschool crew teamed up for some Homecoming Color Wars fun! 🎉🐾
Black was the color, and these Cougars were ready to show their Cougar Pride! 🖤💪 From our littlest learners to our soon-to-be graduates, we love seeing all ages come together to celebrate school spirit and make special memories along the way. 🥰
Once a Cougar, always a Cougar! 🐾🖤
Purple power! 💜✨ Our Kindergarten and Junior classes turned Color Wars Day into a purple party — bright smiles, and big spirit. They showed what school pride looks like.
🦆🦆 Duck, Duck, Goose… with a Phonics Twist! 🦆🦆
Who says intervention time can’t be FUN?! 💛 Our 1st graders turned Duck, Duck, Goose into a phonics game by reading and working with nonsense words!
Instead of simply saying “duck,” students had to use their phonics skills to decode silly, made-up words—stretching sounds, blending, and applying the phonics patterns we’ve been learning. 📚🔤
They were practicing the Science of Reading without even realizing how much learning was happening! 🙌
Learning + movement + fun = a WIN during intervention time! ⭐️
Go Cougars!

🎓 Exploring What’s Next!
Last week, our Juniors and Seniors had the opportunity to welcome representatives from Fort Hays Tech Northwest! They learned about the many pathways, programs, and opportunities available to students after high school.
One thing that really caught our students’ attention was just how hands-on many of the programs are. For students who learn best by doing, this sparked some great interest and conversations!
🏆 Students also got a look at the athletic opportunities available at Fort Hays Tech Northwest—and that definitely got a few heads turning! 👀
We love giving our students the chance to explore different options and discover possibilities they may not have considered before. A big thank-you to Fort Hays Tech Northwest for spending time with our students and helping them think about what’s next!

Congratulations to Claudia Rhoades on receiving her American Degree! This has been a goal of hers for a long time and all the hard work and dedication paid off!
This is the first American Degree Julesburg has had since the Julesburg FFA Chapter was restarted in 2018. Only 1% of all FFA members receive their American Degree and Claudia is one of them! Congratulations Claudia! We are very proud of you!
Claudia will receive her American Degree at the 99th National FFA Convention held in Indianapolis in October.

☀️ It might look like we’re “just playing outside”… but take a closer look! 👀🛝
While little bodies are running, climbing, building, pretending, and exploring, little brains are working HARD! 🧠💪
Through play, our preschoolers are practicing:
🌿 Problem-solving & critical thinking
🤝 Sharing, teamwork & conflict resolution
💬 Language & communication
🏃 Balance, coordination & gross motor skills
🔎 Science, curiosity & exploration
❤️ Confidence, independence & creativity
The best part? They don’t even realize how much they’re learning-they just know they’re having fun. 🥰
In preschool, play isn’t a break from learning… play IS learning! 💜
Schedule for the week!
Josh Palic is participating in a Work-based Learning Opportunity through the Juelsburg Agriculture Education Department and working for the NRCS. This class allows Seniors who have been enrolled in Ag Education for 3 years to work for an Ag-based business within our community in a career area that he or she is interested in pursuing. This gives the student the opportunity to find out more about the career and help them determine if this is the career for them.
As part of his Work-based Learning, Josh recently assisted the NRCS with a soil health demonstration for the "back to our roots" training for NRCS in Fort Collins. Josh is doing an internship with NRCS as part of his senior requirements. Soil health is defined as the continued capacity of the soil to function as a vital living systems that sustains plants, animal and life.
Josh assisted with several demonstrations, including the wind erosion machine, rainfall simulator, aggregate stability and slake test. The training highlighted the core principles of soil health: keeping the soil covered, maintaining living roots as long as possible, minimizing soil disturbance, and promoting plant diversity with livestock integration.
Who knew a simple button box could light up kindergarten math? 🎉 Today’s lesson was full of giggles, hands-on counting, sorting by color, and a lot of proud little faces. It’s amazing how a low-prep manipulative builds number sense and fine motor skills at the same time.

💧 Solids, Liquids, & Gases! 💧
Second graders put their science skills to the test with an absorbency race! They investigated a variety of solid materials to see which could absorb and transfer the most water from one measuring cup to another.
Students ordered the materials from most absorbent to least absorbent and compared which team was able to move the most water.
Through their observations, students discovered that soft, porous materials with more spaces for water to enter can absorb and transfer more water! 🔬💦
What a fun way to explore the properties of solids while learning through hands-on science! 🧪✨
💜🖤📣SHOUT OUT to Creations by Ross for helping the cheerleaders look game day ready for the first home football game!! (Leis and sunglasses brought to you by "wrong occasion theme") 🌸🕶️ Go Cougars!
