The store opens on week 3 and week 7, from the nine-week cycle. The cougar store is able to run effectively with the help of our 4th grade student council. Compare EO 2nd nine weeks office referrals with EO 3rd nine weeks office referrals. We were able to see most improvement in our lower grade levels Evaluation K-2 than our 3-4.
