WOW… what an AMAZING night at Hello, SummerFest! ☀️🎉

Our campus was filled with laughter, fun, and tons of school spirit! Families enjoyed delicious food vendors, awesome club booths, yummy nachos and snacks from our Spartan Parent Club, and talented parent vendors selling incredible homemade goodies.

Laser Tag brought the excitement, but Smash-A-Spartan may have stolen the show — it was a HUGE hit! 💥😆
Huge Thank you to our outside food trucks R SpotNashville Kitchen & Wired Wally Coffee & Lemonade!!

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make the evening so special. Nights like these remind us just how incredible our Cedar community truly is!

Today, our ASB students hosted a special Staff Appreciation Car Wash to show gratitude for all that our staff does each day. Students worked hard washing staff vehicles, sharing smiles, and saying “thank you” in a meaningful, hands-on way.
Not only do we have incredible staff members, but our students are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! It was a fun and thoughtful event that truly highlighted student leadership, kindness, and appreciation across campus.

Our Life Skills students explored the science of color and light by learning about prisms in a hands-on, creative way! Using everyday materials like CDs, toilet paper rolls, and sunlight, students were able to observe how light can bend and reflect to reveal beautiful colors of the spectrum.
