Interesting Facts/Trivia: This is our second year in our new school. We are not a consolidated school, however we are in a sports co-op with Niobrara High School.

Our school mascot was the Hawks and our colors were blue and gold but with the co-op we have changed the mascot to the cougars and our colors are now blue, black and silver.

We have also started a campaign to replace our uniforms. We have had our current uniforms 26 years. The new uniforms will be more in line with an updated style and our present school colors.
