On Thursday, the final game of the season brought tough losses for our Columbus Middle School 8th-grade A and B football teams. We want to thank every player for their commitment, the coaches for their guidance, and all the parents and fans for their incredible support throughout the season. These boys battled hard and showed tremendous heart. We're excited to see what they achieve in their next steps in high school sports!

📢 Thursday, the 7th-grade volleyball girls played hard, pushing through some long sets. Even though none of the teams won their games, they still held their heads high and kept going. They continue to look for improvement every game, knowing they can always get better. 🏐💫

Our 6th Grade Engineering class is taking classwork to the next level with an amazing student-designed playground! 🎢 They have been busy engineering a functioning park using only recycled and craft materials. Their projects must include at least four simple machines, with two of them being functional. The project highlights not only their creativity but also their understanding and construction skills. Each student-led group was tasked with incorporating at least four simple machines, with a minimum of two that are fully functional. Keep working hard, Discoverers!

Yesterday, our CMS 7th grade team played Westridge. Sadly, the A team lost, but they all tried their best, and we are very proud of them. They showed great teamwork and sportsmanship. Our B team won, and in the first five minutes they had already scored points! They made good tackles, showed amazing teamwork, and most importantly, great sportsmanship. We are so proud of our 7th grade team. Go Discoverers!
