Something special is growing at Umpire! The elementary classes and the high school science classes are raising monarch caterpillars to the butterfly stage as park of Cossatot River State Park's Raise and Release program. The elementary students got to hear all about monarch caterpillars and butterflies from park interpreters Abby Piccin and Gretchen Gogle. Be on the lookout for their progress!

Cossatot River High School Named National Beta School of Distinction

Cossatot River High School has been named a 2024-2025 National Beta School of Distinction. The school earned this recognition by increasing their club’s membership by at least 10% from last year.

National Beta School of Distinction is an honor for Beta clubs striving towards academic achievement, exemplary character, demonstrated leadership and service to others. With an ongoing quest to instill these qualities in more students, the National Beta School of Distinction Award is designed to reward those schools that show an increase in membership for the current school year. This year, only 2,946 Beta Clubs across the country received this award.
In a congratulatory letter to the school, Bobby Hart, CEO said “This national award speaks highly of your commitment to academic excellence and illustrates your dedication to preparing students for their future.”

Award recipients will receive a National Beta School of Distinction banner to proudly display as a symbol of their accomplishment. CRHS Beta sponsors are Beverly Higgins and Terry Alexander.
