This week we are proud to recognize Tiffiny Sidwell, one of our outstanding high school secretaries who truly does it all. Tiffiny helps keep our building running smoothly every day, supports students and staff with a smile, helps coordinate drivers’ education, coaches JH volleyball, and even steps in as a substitute bus driver when needed!
Her versatility, dedication, and willingness to help anywhere in the district make her an invaluable part of Caldwell Schools. Thank you, Tiffiny, for everything you do for our students, families, and community!

This week we are proud to recognize Mrs. Brandey Mincks, a longtime Caldwell educator and one of our most respected teachers. Mrs. Mincks is known for the way she truly cares about her students and their families—always going above and beyond to make sure every child feels supported and valued.
Thank you, Mrs. Mincks, for your dedication, compassion, and years of commitment to the Caldwell community. We are lucky to have you!

We are happy to welcome our community to use the track at the Tribe Athletic Complex for walking or running!
The walk-in entrance is near the main gate in the parking lot, and the track is open for personal use anytime it’s not being used by the school (for example, during track practice or scheduled events).
Please remember that any use of the turf field must be coordinated through Caldwell Athletics Director, Chance Rucker, and pets are not permitted on the track or turf areas. (The turf surface can’t handle pet waste, so we appreciate your cooperation!)
We are excited to see families and neighbors staying active and enjoying this beautiful facility!
Mrs. Baker’s students are constantly learning through hands-on, real-world projects that include designing and coding robots, exploring agriculture, food science, and 3D modeling. One of her newest and most popular courses, Medical Detectives, gives students the chance to step into the role of healthcare professionals. They have learned how to take vitals, diagnose diseases, and even tested antibiotics on bacteria samples to determine the best treatment.
She also goes the extra mile to share these great experiences with families through her CTE Classroom Newsletter, which showcases the excitement and innovation happening in her classroom every day.
Thank you, Mrs. Baker, for your creativity, dedication, and passion for helping students discover their future careers


She’s also an active leader in our FFA chapter and will be heading to the National FFA Convention next week with her students and the rest of the FFA chapter! Just another example of her dedication to creating meaningful learning experiences both inside and outside the classroom.
Thank you, Mrs. Raines, for your passion, innovation, and the countless hours you invest in our students!
