Cook MS Rally

The Cook MS administrative team rewarded its students for reaching their tardy reduction goal by taking pies to the face during the first Ranger Rally of the school year on Oct. 30.

The Cook team set a goal to reduce tardies by 25 in each grade level over 17 days, and students shattered the mark.

“Each grade level exceeded its goal, with sixth- and eighth-grade cutting their tardies in half from the first 17 days for an overall reduction of 239 tardies campuswide,” said Cook Principal Maggie Wiley.

Joining Wiley in receiving a pie to the face were eighth-grade AP Lynn Blakeslee and counselor Le’Krystal Simon; and seventh-grade AP Chris Rose and counselor Lynna Gonzalez.
