We’re flipping back to the 1995–96 school year with the Cubs Kumtux 1996 yearbook—a snapshot of student life, school spirit, and some unforgettable moments.
👑 Homecoming royalty took center stage, capturing a classic high school tradition that still brings our community together today.
🏀 One of the more memorable events? Donkey Basketball! According to the yearbook, Eric DeJong hit two three-pointers—but the secondary team still fell just short, losing 32–36 to the elementary staff.
⚾⛳ Spring sports were in full swing, with baseball and golf highlights showing Cubs pride on the field and course.
🎓 The Class of 1996 filled the pages with senior photos, along with some lighthearted features like “Motor Mouths” and “Party Animals”.







Students from Sedro-Woolley High School’s Mariachi Azul Real performed for residents at Home Place Special Care in Burlington yesterday for Cinco de Mayo, bringing the joy of live music to the holiday celebration.
It’s always special to see how music brings people together across generations. Thank you to our students for sharing their talents and brightening the day for others. 💙🎺
