Despite the intensity of the workouts, they had fun, built camaraderie, and pushed each other to give their best every rep, run, and jump. Coach K, Coach Decker, and Coach Schumacher are proud of the hard work and effort put in by this group and are already looking forward to Summer 2026. Go Hawks! **Not pictured: Emma Carter

Also, following your stop in The Barn and the grade level meeting. You and your child(ren) can tour the school and classroom.

The quote of the week this week was “If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you.” And this week’s Iron Hawk Award winners choose to challenge themselves in every workout without complaint or quit, just focused determination and grit! Congratulations, Colin Cogswell and Katelyn Tieszen on showing up and putting in the work!
