This Friday is Senior Night, and we’re especially proud to recognize our one and only senior cheerleader and cheer captain, Anna Collins! 💜💛
Anna has stepped into a special leadership role this season, helping guide and encourage a young Charger cheer squad with confidence, spirit, and a whole lot of heart. She’s been a wonderful example for the girls following in her footsteps, and we’re so proud of the way she represents Sully Buttes.
Come help us celebrate Anna along with our senior football players this Friday night!

🏈💜 SENIOR NIGHT • CLASS OF 2027 💜🏈
Friday night, we celebrate these five seniors as they take their home field for Senior Night.
Years of practices, Friday night lights, wins, losses, sweat, friendships and memories have led to nights like this. One last season. One last Senior Night. And memories that will last long after the final whistle.
Come out Friday night, fill the stands, get loud, and help us celebrate the Class of 2027!
Once a Charger, always a Charger. 💜🤍🏈
🏈 Last home game of the regular season. 🏈Come cheer on the Chargers and help them get another victory!!
Our artists across all grades are exploring the bold, colorful geometric art of South African artist Dr. Esther Mahlangu! Here is what we are accomplished:
1st Grade: Building fine motor skills by cutting and puzzle-fitting geometric patterns.
2nd & 3rd Grade: Using rulers and T-squares to draft geometric borders around a drawing of a favorite memory.
4th & 5th Grade: Drawing traditional Ndebele dolls, layering line patterns, and painting with watercolors. For a closer look to their art pieces please visit Mrs. Tassler website: https://sites.google.com/view/mrstassler/k-5-esther-mahlangu?authuser=0

Our students recently finished an incredible unit inspired by internationally acclaimed South African Ndebele artist Esther Mahlangu!
After studying how Mahlangu uses bold Ndebele geometric patterns and vibrant color to preserve history and share her narrative, students reflected on a meaningful childhood memory of their own. Using precision drafting tools (rulers and T-squares), they engineered intricate geometric borders surrounding stylized graphic compositions that turn their personal stories into art.
For a closer look to their art pieces and to be able to read their art statements please visit Mrs. Tassler website: https://sites.google.com/view/mrstassler/hs-esther-mahlangu?authuser=0
AFNR shop classes are working on finishing up putting the steel on our storage shed. After that we will install the big roll up door and have it all weather tight.
