What an incredible day at last week’s Elementary Track Day! 🏃♂️🏃♀️💨

A huge thank you to all of our PE teachers for helping organize this fantastic event — especially Coach Mac from Huachuca Mountain Elementary School for all of the hard work and coordination that made the day such a success.
We also want to give a special shout out to the Buena Track & Field student-athletes and Coach Bristow for volunteering their time and helping encourage our future Colts throughout the day!

Last week, our freshmen scientists in Honors Biology took on a real-world investigation into Valley Fever! 🧪🌵
After learning about the important role fungi play in ecosystems, the symptoms of Valley Fever, and why some individuals are more genetically vulnerable to severe illness, students stepped into the lab to put their knowledge into action.
Using DNA samples isolated from soil collected across various Southwest U.S. cities, students performed gel electrophoresis to analyze the presence of the fungus responsible for Valley Fever. Their mission: identify how widespread the fungus is and pinpoint potential “hot spots.”
Real-world science, critical thinking, and hands-on learning in action—this is what it means to be a Colt! 🐎✨
