🏆 STATE CHAMPION ALERT & TOP 10 FINISHES! 🐾
The results are in, and our Stanley High School Powerlifting Team absolutely crushed it at the State Championships! Our athletes didn't just compete; they set new benchmarks and brought home some serious hardware.

🥇 THE STATE CHAMPION
A massive congratulations to Jade Jones, our Division V 181 lb. STATE CHAMPION! Jade dominated the platform, setting new Personal Records (PRs) on all three of her lifts to take the top spot!

🏅 STATE RANKINGS & RECAP
Tristen Thomas: Tied for 5th Place (officially 6th) in a gritty performance, setting new PRs on all three of his lifts!

Amihya Stephens: 6th Place in the 123 lb. class with a brand new PR on her deadlift!

Colin King: 8th Place in the 123 lb. class with a huge new PR on his deadlift!

Gabriel Holloway: 9th Place in the 220 lb. class with a strong new PR on his deadlift!

Being the first year to have a Powerlifting team and to have every single state qualifier finish in the Top 10 in Louisiana is a testament to the hard work these Panthers put in behind the scenes. From the early morning sessions to the final pulls in, they represented Stanley with pride!

Did you know Financial Literacy is a required course for our students? 💰🏦💳

In this class, students learn real-life skills like budgeting, taxes, saving, credit and debt management, banking, investing basics, and smart financial decision-making.

In these photos, students are putting those skills into action by creating a weekly meal plan, building a grocery list, and shopping within a set budget. These hands-on activities help prepare them for success beyond the classroom!

Parents… they might finally understand why you say, “Put that back, it’s not in the budget!”

Stanley High School kicked off its Spring Book Fair week with a STEAM Literacy Night on March 24.

Students in grades K-5 participated in inquiry-based activities related to the book Tacky the Penguin. The STEAM framework for learning fosters creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving through hands-on activities that integrate science, technology, engineering, art, and math.

At each station, students explored the question, “How does being different help us?” by learning what made Tacky the Penguin unique. Thank you to all of the students who participated, and our wonderful K-5 teachers who led the fun activities!
