The cause chosen by the Cobden Youth & Community Advocates (CYCA) to raise awareness and funds for this year is Anna PAWS. We will hold a district-wide Purple Out For PAWS on Tuesday May 2nd. T-shirt forms are due to the school office by 3 pm Wednesday April 12th. Orders may also be placed through the online store, which closes April 11th. Link to store-https://shopsilkworm.com/cobdenhspaws Proceeds from the t-shirts will go toward supporting the PAWS animal shelter in Anna. We'll take a large group picture in our purple with some cute pets from the shelter the day of the purple out, and try to help get the pets adopted.

It’s scholarship season! Students in Adult Living class are hard at work applying for scholarships with assistance from Mrs. Reiman and Mrs. Engelmann. Since adding Adult Living class in 2018, the amount of scholarship money awarded to Cobden students has increased exponentially. The average grew from $350,000 to $750,000 in scholarships awarded. We even hit one MILLION dollars in 2021! Students in Adult Living are also supported if they choose a trade, military or go straight to work! 💰
