What a SPLASH-tastic way to celebrate Read Across America! Our C.C. Lee students worked hard, read tons, and earned the ultimate reward — the chance to DUNK Mr. Osborn! And that’s not all… the winning teachers got to PIE him too! The excitement was sky-high, and the laughs were even louder. Huge thanks to Mrs. Schmidt, Mrs. Reierson, Mrs. Lott, and Mrs. Hansen for organizing this unforgettable event. Keep those pages turning, C.C. Lee — reading really does pay off!

Today, we celebrated our amazing 5th graders as they took center stage one last time at C.C. Lee before heading off to their next big adventure—middle school! Whether they’re bound for Holgate or Simmons, these students are stepping forward with excitement, courage, and backpacks full of memories. They proudly shared their “Top 10 Highlights” from their time at C.C. Lee—laugh-out-loud moments, field trip favorites, and unforgettable friendships. But beyond the highlights, we hope they carry with them the feeling of being known, supported, and celebrated every step of the way. That’s what really matters. To our students: you’ve made us proud. To our parents: thank you for partnering with us. To our teachers and staff: your impact is woven into each goodbye. To our community: your support helped shape these young minds. The journey continues—but C.C. Lee will always be your foundation. Here’s to big dreams, brave hearts, and a future full of promise!
