TIMES CORRECTED: I, Dr. Lewis, messed up the times in the email sent earlier today- SORRY! Sophomores who signed up, have turned in both of your forms, and maintained academic eligibility, please meet at 9:45am and we will leave at 10am as Worlds' Of Fun doesn't open until 11am this year. Sorry for the confusion! I'll be there at 9am just in case.

Congratulations to all the Cyclones who made the honor roll for second semester of the 25-26 school year! #CyclonesLearn

A fun season comes to an end at Baldwin 2-1 in a hard fought game down to the wire. Ladies, we are so proud of your growth and excited for next season already!


REGIONAL SOFTBALL - Due to inclement weather, both received and in the forecast, Paola HS has made the decision to postpone 4A Regional Softball until Wednesday afternoon instead of tomorrow. The games have also been moved to one field so Ottawa vs. Paola will not be the second game of the tournament and will start at approximately 4:30 PM.

Thank you to our graduation marshals, you did a fantastic job!!!! #CyclonePride
