The MS Wrestlers wrapped up their 2024 season Saturday, participating in the Coloma Middle School Invitational. Each wrestler participated in their own bracket to try and fight their way to the podium. Three Panthers ended the day with medals, with Camdyn Woollett placing 2nd, JT Isbrecht placing 3rd, and Josh Kock placing 4th. Brooklyn Woollett and Roman Arndt wrestled hard, but finished outside of the top 4 in their brackets.
We would like to thank the wrestlers for their hard work and families for their support. We look forward to next season and encourage all students to participate.

MS ROBOTICS Finishes 20th!
The MS Robotics Team 17772 The Pantarians competed this past Saturday, December 2nd at Coloma HS in the annual Sunset Robotics Invitational. There were 32 teams from around the state competing for FIRST Robotics. The team was desperately trying to finish their robot before the competition and some coding errors / issues stood in the way of a working robot. With the incredible help of some volunteers at the competition, the robot was able to work and compete in all 5 matches. We finished the day at 2-3 and ranked 20th. Great work all season and kudos goes to these students who devoted the past 3 months to building the robot.
The Pantarians : L to R - Jonah, Brady, Jaxon, Amber, Rylie, Paige, Caroline,Lucas, Mr. Kindt
ALL 8th grade parents are invited to attend and learn more!
