Cougars Fans,
There is a schedule change on November 25 for our home HS BB games due to Adrian still playing football. Here is the update: 5:30 JV boys vs New Franklin, followed V boys vs New Franklin, lastly V girls vs Adrian.#rollcougs
Secondary teachers had professional development yesterday with presenters from DESE's District Continuous Improvement Program. They have been working with us on assessments, which follows up on local work from 2 weeks ago about testing and reading growth. CRS is striving to build assessments that best reflect student skill sets and inform more effective teaching.




🌟Crest Ridge Senior Spotlight🌟
Laney Wilhite
Laney’s favorite high school memories are the moments she was able to head home early.
Throughout her time at Crest Ridge, she has been involved in volleyball, basketball, track, softball, cheer, FBLA, FCCLA, FFA, and FCA. She says everyone in the office has made the biggest impact on her during her years here.
Her advice to younger Cougars is to make school fun !
After graduation, Laney plans to attend State Fair and study sports media. In 10 years, she sees herself as being well-off and having a family.
A fun fact about Laney is that she has had five concussions.
Her favorite quote is:
“People change and things go wrong, but remember life goes on.” – Mac Miller

After reading the book Twenty-One Elephants and Still Standing, 4th and 5th graders explored structures that made bridges stronger. They then were challenged to construct a bridge out of only paper that was strong enough to hold 100 pennies.

I am always excited to celebrate the accomplishments of Crest Ridge students and staff! There is always so much room to grow, and I am hesitant to brag because things can change. But...I have always thought we were the best in the county, and by this measure--it looks like we currently are ;-) So proud of you Cougars! Keep working hard everyday!

Congratulations to Clayton Gower on his top 100 finish in the Class 2 Cross Country State meet. Way to rep Creat Ridge! Thanks to the other runners for going to support him.

Clayton Gower competes at the State Cross Country Championships today!!!! Go get 'em Clayton!!!! #rollCougs
