This was Ms. Seever's first year in junior high hosting a Cobden Spelling Bee. The winners were able to participate in the ROE district spelling bee February 17th at Murphysboro Middle School. Maeve Kell, Austin Hawthorne, and Zander Craig represented the district well! We are very proud of them and look forward to what they are able to accomplish next year!

UPDATE-Senior Night tomorrow
As we are navigating the change of date for Senior Night, we have decided to acknowledge the Seniors pre-game. If your schedule allows, please be in the gym by 5:45 on Friday, February 20. Our goal is to start acknowledging seniors at 6:00 pm. (We will not start until all parents/guardians are in attendance.) We will acknowledge the seniors in alphabetical order. I will have a list to ensure everyone is lined up in the correct order.

Thank you for being flexible. This change has been a challenge for all involved.
