October 16th is Bosses Day and October serves as Principal Appreciation Month and our Sunshine Committee made sure to celebrate our amazing leaders who guide, support, and inspire our Bulldog family every day! 💛
Superintendent Mrs. Simmons, along with principals Dr. Lee, Dr. Devier and Mrs. Maag were surprised with thoughtful gifts and plenty of smiles from our Sunshine group — a team of teachers and staff dedicated to spreading positivity and joy throughout Ada Schools. 🌻
Thank you to our administrators for your leadership, care, and commitment to making Ada Schools a brighter place to learn and grow! 🖤💛 #AdaBulldogs #PrincipalAppreciationMonth #BossesDay #BulldogPride #SpreadingSunshine
Students in Mr. Crawford’s Applied Construction & Manufacturing Technology class have been putting their engineering and problem-solving skills to the test. Over the past few weeks, they’ve learned how to interpret engineering drawings — and recently took on a challenge with no dimensions provided!
Using their knowledge of drawing scales and architect tools, students calculated measurements, cut parts on the miter saw, assembled with glue and nails, and finished their projects with paint or stain. The result? A custom-built wall shelf they can proudly display! 🪚📏
👏 Great work, Bulldogs — applying knowledge, building skills, and creating something to show for it!

👏 Last week (Sept. 22–26), our American Sign Language classes celebrated Deaf Awareness Month!
✨ ASL students shared short facts about American Sign Language, Deaf culture, and the Deaf community during morning announcements.
🤟 Students in all four ASL levels also signed the Pledge of Allegiance together, showcasing their learning and respect for this beautiful language.
We are proud to celebrate and honor the traditions, language, and folklore of the Deaf community — an important part of the rich tapestry of American culture. 💙

This experience is designed to help break down barriers and connect students with an important community resource. For some of our students—especially those living in rural areas—it can be surprising to learn how close the library is to school.
The goal is for every student to have the opportunity to get a library card and explore after-school programming tailored for their age group. Middle school is a time of growing independence, and this is one more way for students to practice making positive choices on their own.
We are grateful to continue this tradition and can’t wait to see how our students take advantage of all the library has to offer! 🐾
On Monday, our high schoolers played Family Feud during lunch in honor of Spirit Week. The theme was “Under the Sea” to match our upcoming Homecoming dance. After some fierce competition, the juniors came out on top! 🎉
