Hey Bulldog fam! 🐶🧡🖤
Guess who we caught being awesome? Our very own Dr. Owen!
He was out there helping a student in need like it was no big deal. But we see you, Dr. O! That's the Bulldog Way in action, folks.
And get this - every single Friday, rain or shine, Dr. Owen's rocking our orange and black. Talk about school spirit!
He's not just talking about being a Bulldog, he's living it. Showing kindness, being there for others, and bleeding orange and black - that's what we're all about!
Dr. Owen, you're crushing it! Thanks for showing us all how it's done.
Who else is feeling that Bulldog pride right now? 💪🎉

Our first home football game of the year tonight vs. Iowa Park
7th grade got to run the best play in football, the "victory formation," and earned a hard fought 20-14 win!
8A and 8B came up just a bit short, but played hard until the last whistle!
Our cheerleaders brought the energy and the band was fantastic!
