The 5th graders participated in the Water Riches Field Day near Lake McConaughey. They had the opportunity to visit Spring Creek near Keystone and learn about native grasses, grazing, and the importance of spring fed waterways. The second stop on their trip was Cedar Point where the students took a walking tour to explore the rock layers and see some fossils found in the area. Next, they traveled to the Hydro Plant at Kingsley Dam to find out about the use of water for power. One highlight was descending the stairs to 60 feet below the surface of lake Ogallala. The final stop on their trip was the Lake McConaughey Visitor Center to learn about water safety and see an interactive map of the Platte River system. Thank you Keith Co. Extension Office for this opportunity. #paxtontigers

The Paxton FFA Chapter spent the afternoon touring the Sustainable Beef Plant in North Platte today. They learned a lot about the entire process. Special thanks to Doug and Linda Drews who helped plan the tour. #paxtontigers

Today we held Tiger Pals, bringing high school and elementary students together for a fun teamwork challenge! Pairs designed “creatures” using random school supplies and could trade materials to build the best monster they could imagine. This activity strengthened mentorship, school community, and Tiger Pride across all grades! 🐯 #paxtontigers

Our high school journalism students wrapped up an engaging Tornado Project Unit in honor of Severe Weather Awareness Week (April 13–17, 2026)! 🌪️ Students wrote editorials exploring the science of tornadoes, safety preparedness, and the impact of historical storms. They also brought their learning to life by creating mock weather reports - and their creativity did not disappoint! From “wrangling the storm” to full-on anchorman mode (mustaches included), students kept us both informed and entertained! #paxtontigers
