This weekend, our girls wrestling team made an impressive mark at the regional tournament, finishing 8th out of 15 teams. It was a hard-fought battle, and every girl gave it their all on the mat. Each of our athletes earned a placement, showcasing their skill, determination, and sportsmanship. The real highlight came when three of our wrestlers secured spots to advance to the state tournament, a well-deserved achievement. Their relentless effort and focus paid off, and we’re all incredibly proud of how far they’ve come!

February Trojan Update

3 months ago, Maddie Mansheim

Trojan update SCSD Students of the month February Events for the public on page 2 A huge shoutout to Ivy Shine, a true motivated visionary who leads by example every day! Whether it’s keeping the cafeteria clean, encouraging others to pitch in, or spreading positivity with her smile, Ivy always steps up without being asked. Her leadership and enthusiasm inspire those around her to do the right thing. Keep shining, Ivy—your impact doesn’t go unnoticed! Shouting out Amir Abeyta for being a confident critical thinker! During essays in Mr. Lehman’s, he asked insightful questions, stayed focused, and delivered a high-quality piece—finishing first without sacrificing excellence. His dedication and sharp thinking set a great example for his peers. Keep up the amazing work, Amir! Your skills will take you far! A huge shoutout to Elias Vigil for being a positive influencer in our school! As a student assistant for Miss Brenda, he’s been an absolute rockstar—always kind, hardworking, and ready to help. From laminating and stapling hundreds of papers to making the classroom a better place, he does it all without complaint. Elias, your dedication and positivity will take you far. You’re bound for greatness! Athlete of the month According to her coach, Eliza Garcia is the definition of dedication. She’s always on time, always pushing herself, and always striving to be better every single day. Even when she’s sick and should be resting, she refuses to stay off the mat—her coach says he has a hard time keeping her from training because of her unstoppable drive. Her work ethic, passion, and relentless commitment to the sport have put her in the running for State, and there’s no doubt she’s earned it. Keep grinding, Eliza—your hard work is paying off!
