Council Wig Snachers? That's right ASB hosted an assembly for tip off week, the first game of the week tittled "wig snaching". What a laugh!

This is an awesome opportunity you don't want to miss out on!!! For children age 18 & under without dental insurance.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the people of our community. This is the third time this year that I have had the privilege of accepting tool donations for our shop program. These donations come from local businesses, community members, and anonymous donors who continue to demonstrate support for our students and our agricultural education program.
In this case, the tools were generously donated by Paul and Carrie Pedreira. The collection includes a wide range of equipment for carpentry, forestry, masonry, and welding. I cannot adequately express how thankful I am for donations of this caliber. These tools will not only be used daily in our shop, but they will also inspire and educate generations of students to come.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support our program and our students. Your generosity truly makes a difference.

The freshmen used bouncy balls to investigate both exponential and linear relationships in Mrs. Beyuka's Algebra class!



I have yet another great update from the shop!
Last Wednesday, we held our second round of welding qualification testing. Three students attempted the 1G SMAW (flat arc weld) test. This is a challenging qualification that requires multiple passes, a visual inspection, and destructive bend testing.
I am very proud to share that all students passed — Hattie N., Logan T., and Cheyenne S. did an outstanding job. Cheyenne also tested in 1G GMAW (flat wire feed) and absolutely crushed it!
These students spend countless hours in the welding booths and on our new Augmented Arc system. I am extremely proud of their progress and dedication, and I cannot wait to see them take on their 4G (overhead) test this spring.
Spending that much time pad welding and practicing fundamentals can be monotonous, but their success is proof of their skill, discipline, and commitment.
Be proud of this achievement, because I certainly am.

Here is a special message from our very own Ag Shop director, Tyler Power...
I want to begin highlighting more of the process behind the work happening in the Ag Shop — not just the finished products. While final builds are exciting to see, they only tell part of the story. Countless skills, challenges, and learning moments take place long before a project is complete.
So, every Thursday, be on the lookout for Ag Shop project spotlights.
This week, I am showcasing Remington Crowell’s custom rat-rod build.
Remington brought this idea to me earlier this year, and this project truly reflects the depth of his imagination and creativity. He has invested his own money into sourcing parts and has demonstrated outstanding teamwork alongside his classmate, Ashton Heyrend, who has been involved every step of the way.
This rat-rod is being built completely from scratch. The frame has been fabricated, and we are now using the shop’s CNC plasma table to cut custom brackets for mounts, shocks, struts, and engine components.
Remington’s project represents every stage of the fabrication process, from sketches and measurements on paper to real steel and real results. I cannot wait to see this machine on the road.
– Mr. Power
respectfully,
Tyler Power
Shop Teacher/FFA Advisor

Students diligently reading in Mrs. Thompson's 11th grade ELA class. Mrs. Thompson believes reading is important to students' overall academic achievement. It can expand the mind in some of the most complex ways which is something that is extremely beneficial to the students at Council Jr/Senior High. Way to go Mrs. Thompson!

🎄 Community Partnership Making a Difference 🎄
The Council School District PTO would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to M&W Market, our dedicated district staff and board members, and the Council School District PTO members for their incredible teamwork and generosity this holiday season.
Through this partnership, we were able to make four kids’ Christmases a little brighter. Together, we ensured that each child received not only items from their wish lists, but also essential needs, comfort items, hygiene supplies, and grocery gift cards to support their families.
This effort is a powerful reminder of what can be accomplished when our community comes together with care, compassion, and a shared commitment❤️
Thank you to everyone who contributed time, resources, and heart to make this possible.

Hello Parents,
One of our Schoolwide Improvement Plan (SWIP) goals for CES is to reduce student absenteeism. Research continues to show that when students attend school regularly, their learning, achievement, and success all increase. I'm happy to report that as of December 10th, CES has reduced its total number of student absences from 420 on this date last year to 352 this year. This is a reduction of 68 days! Go Lumberjacks! Thank you to parents for making school attendance a priority and thank you to CES teachers and staff members for making CES a positive educational environment where students will learn and thrive!
Thank you.
