Our kindergarten classes released their butterflies on the playground today!!!! 🦋
They raised them from tiny little eggs and watched each stage of their amazing transformation—caterpillars munching, chrysalises forming, and finally the big moment when they emerged as beautiful butterflies. Along the way, our little scientists learned so much about growth, patience, and change.
There’s something extra sweet about watching kindergarteners care for something so small and fragile… and then gently send it off into the world with big smiles and even bigger “bye butterflies!” waves. 💛🦋

Nothing says summer quite like Banana Ball! 🍌🎉
A group of CPS staff members recently traveled to Kansas City, Missouri, to catch the one-and-only Savannah Bananas in action. The trip was full of laughs, unforgettable entertainment, and a Savannah Bananas victory! ⚾👏
Representing Zebra Nation were Tara Kerr, Crystal Lakey, Bethany DK, Courtney McCann, and Julie McComb.
Whether you're cheering from the stands, relaxing at the beach, or exploring somewhere new, don't forget to pack your Zebra gear and show your #CPSZEBRAPRIDE wherever summer takes you!

🌟 May Employees of the Month 🌟
Congratulations to Mrs. Shamblin and Mrs. Ratcliff, our May Employees of the Month!
These two amazing ladies each bring something special to our school family.
💙 Mrs. Shamblin is the calm, patient, and sweet presence we all need when our days get a little crazy. She has a way of bringing peace to any situation and is always there with a kind heart and gentle spirit.
💛 Mrs. Ratcliff is full of fun and energy and might just be the best compliment-giver around! If you're ever having a rough day, stop by Mrs. Ratcliff's room. She has a way of making everyone feel valued and appreciated, and you'll leave with a smile just from being around her.
Together, these ladies help make Catalayah such a wonderful place to learn and work. Their kindness, positivity, and dedication do not go unnoticed.
Catalayah wouldn't be the same without them! Thank you, Mrs. Shamblin and Mrs. Ratcliff, for all you do!

Look how precious our lunch ladies are!!! 💕 As much as they love our sweet kiddos and staff, they were definitely ready to say “Peace Out!” 😂✌️
After serving hundreds of lunches, opening approximately 47 million ketchup packets, and reminding students to grab their milk one last time… summer break was calling their names! ☀️🍔🥛
We are so thankful for these amazing ladies and all the love they pour into our school every single day. Enjoy your well-deserved summer, cafeteria queens!
