We are happy to announce October's students of the month! Congratulations to these students, who were celebrated for their contributions to our school and community! 

Each month, teachers from each department at Cass High choose a Student of the Month for their content area. These students are chosen not only for their hard work and determination in the classroom, but also for encompassing what it means to Love Blue and Live Gold here at Cass High. We applaud these students and want our community to join us in celebrating them and their achievements! Along with a certificate, they also received a Starbucks gift card!
