Last night, the FFA Donkey Basketball fundraiser brought many laughs and smiles as the Touchet FFA team took on Burbank FFA and then the Touchet Staff. Donkey Basketball is a basketball game played on the backs of donkeys. The donkeys are all well trained and set in their ways, thus making the game unpredictable. Thank you to all of you who came and supported the Touchet FFA.

We are excited to share Touchet's new Redhawk logo with you. Touchet will retire the Indian name, mascot, and logo after the class of 2022 graduates as the Indians in June 2022. Touchet was one of many districts in Washington transitioning from Native American Names following SHB 1356. We are grateful to all the staff, students, community, and school board for being a part of the long, heartfelt process.

Third-grade students today learned about friction and gravity in science by building "sliders" using materials such as sandpaper, foam, buttons, and cardboard. Students used pennies as weights and applied principles of slope to complete their science projects. Another great day to be in 3rd grade.

Congratulations to the Touchet Elementary students chosen for the month of February to have lunch & ice cream with the principal. How do students get chosen? Each month students have the opportunity to earn behavior slips by showing respect, solving problems, and/or making good decisions. The behavior slip gets put into a drawing. Students whose slips get drawn get to have lunch with the principal and receive an ice-cream treat.

REMINDER: There is no school this coming Monday, February 21st in observance of Presidents Day.
