Our very own, Mr. Clutts, visited Carbondale Elementary School District #95 to share his knowledge about 3D printing. He presented to 4th and 5th grade students during their Discovery Day. Students and staff were given an introduction to the world of 3D printing and all of the exciting creations this advancing technology can produce!

The cause chosen by the Cobden Youth & Community Advocates (CYCA) to raise awareness and funds for this year is Anna PAWS. We will hold a district-wide Purple Out For PAWS on Tuesday May 2nd. T-shirt forms are due to the school office by 3 pm Wednesday April 12th. Orders may also be placed through the online store, which closes April 11th. Link to store-https://shopsilkworm.com/cobdenhspaws Proceeds from the t-shirts will go toward supporting the PAWS animal shelter in Anna. We'll take a large group picture in our purple with some cute pets from the shelter the day of the purple out, and try to help get the pets adopted.


First Grade Leprechaun Traps! No leprechauns were caught, but some sweet treats and gold coins were left behind.🍀💚






Our Lost and Found is full to the brim! Please feel free to visit this evening during parent teacher conferences 3:30-7 or encourage your child to check it out each day. We have lots of nice items that belong to some of our students!
