What an unforgettable day for our 3rd grade Cougars! 🐬☀️ Their End-of-Year field trip took them to beautiful South Padre Island for an amazing dolphin watch adventure with Captain Murphy’s Isla Tours! Students had the opportunity to enjoy the ocean views, learn about marine life, and spot playful dolphins in their natural habitat. 🌊 A perfect way to celebrate a fantastic school year filled with learning, growth, and memories together. Thank you to our teachers, staff, parents, and Isla Tours & Captain Murphy's for making this experience so special for our Cougars! 💙
