🏀🦁 Coming to a School Near You…
MARCH MAMMAL MADNESS: FAMILY EDITION!
Move over basketball…
There’s a new kind of March Madness coming to town!
Each year, scientists at Arizona State University host March Mammal Madness (MMM) — a fun, science-based tournament where animals from around the world (both living and extinct!) compete in a bracket-style challenge.
But here’s the twist…
👉 It’s not just about who is “bigger” or “stronger.”
👉 Winners are determined using real science!
👉 Habitat, behavior, adaptations, and survival traits all matter.
🧬 How Your Family Can Participate
Take a quick look at the​ rules​ and the species list.

Talk through your predictions together.

Build your bracket here:

👉 https://www.mmmbrackets.com/index.php?invite_pool_pin=7853

Submit your bracket before Monday, March 9th (Wildcard Round).

Final brackets lock by Wednesday, March 11th when the “Money Mammals” compete!

A BearKit Family Challenge
Which animal will rise to the top?
Which DMS family will have the most accurate bracket?
Will it be:
The fastest?

The most camouflaged?

The most cooperative?

Or the most surprising?

We can’t wait to see which families become our DMS March Mammal Madness Champion!
Let the science begin! 🔬🏆

Estimados padres y tutores,

¡Nos complace invitarlos a una oportunidad especial solo para padres de estudiantes de ESL!

El lunes 23 de febrero, durante las conferencias de padres y maestros en la escuela secundaria, ofreceremos una capacitación gratuita sobre cómo usar un programa gratuito en la computadora diseñado específicamente para ayudar a los padres a aprender inglés.

Este programa se puede usar en casa y es una excelente manera para que los padres practiquen y mejoren sus habilidades en inglés.

Ofreceremos dos sesiones de capacitación:

• 4:00 p.m.
• 5:30 p.m.

Cada sesión durará aproximadamente una hora y se llevará a cabo en el Salón 100 de la escuela secundaria.
Les recomendamos que asistan a una de estas sesiones para aprender cómo acceder y utilizar este recurso tan útil.
Si tienen alguna pregunta, no duden en comunicarse con nosotros. ¡Esperamos verlos allí!

Atentamente,

Jeff Cudney

We're absolutely loving this beautiful Wyoming winter! ☀️ While we're enjoying the sunshine and mild temps, we know Mother Nature can surprise us. Just a friendly reminder that all our inclement weather information—closures, delays, and updates—lives right here: https://www.ccsd1.org/page/inclement-weather-information. 🌨️ Here's hoping we don't need it, but we're ready if we do!

 A poster with a white background and black text. At the top left, a blue and black drawing of a bobcat wearing a backward baseball cap looks to the side. To its right, the words DOUGLAS MIDDLE SCHOOL are in bold, black capital letters. Below the school name is a large, blue line-art drawing of a DSLR camera. Below the camera, there is a block of text in a handwritten font that reads, "DMS families and friends: If you attend any DMS events, take pictures, and don't mind them being used in the DMS yearbook, please share them to tjohnson@ccsd1.org." Below that, in a cursive font, the words "school sanctioned sports only" are written.
Students from a 7th grade reading group planned and ran a Holocaust Remembrance Walk today for their peers. They showcased their growing passion for sharing their learning and their connection to this content. The project was 100 % student generated and it was not assigned by a teacher. It happened because the students wanted to do it. Many additional students participated, had a deep experience, and learned. Great job Bearkits! #kit2cat
