Floydada Collegiate Spanish Club Members of the Floydada Collegiate High School Spanish Club proudly attended the Festival Hispano de Cultura y Lengua at Wayland Baptist University on January 12, 2026. The festival celebrated Spanish language and culture through a variety of artistic and academic competitions. Students had the opportunity to participate in events including Poetry Recitation, Original Poetry Recitation, Prose or Drama, Extemporaneous Speaking, Spanish Essay/Creative Writing/Poetry, Art, and a Talent Show. Approximately eight to ten schools from the region attended the festival. This marked the first year Floydada Collegiate High School participated in the competition, and four students represented our school. Hiram Lopez competed in Original Poetry Recitation. Nayohmi Garcia and Renae Delgado entered a 2D drawing in the art competition. Noah Fierros submitted a photography entry and proudly earned a 3rd-place ribbon. We are incredibly proud of all our students for their hard work, courage, and dedication. Their performances truly represented Floydada with excellence. We are already brainstorming creative ideas for next year! Our goal is to enter the Art competition with a piñata standing over four feet tall, and we hope to take even more students so they can experience this exciting and culturally enriching event. #whirlwindpride 💚🌪️

VASE Good Luck to our students that will compete in the VASE art competition this weekend! #whirlwindpride 💚🌪️🎨

As always, our top priority is the safety of our athletes.

Floydada Collegiate P-TECH On Friday 2/6 we had two guest speakers from University Medical Center in Lubbock give a lesson to our Principles in Healthcare class on medical math and its practical applications. Our students started by learning about the speakers, Kacie Monforte BSN, RN, CCRN and Emily Walsh MSN, RN, CCRN, CHCR. Both speakers pursued nursing and found their way through several settings to settle in the cardiac department. After gaining experience there they found that they also loved educating new nurses in the field and reaching out to students like ours. In the lesson on medical math our students practiced conversions, discussed how age and weight impacts medication, and did some critical thinking on how incorrect dosages and poor documentation might affect patients. They also had a hands-on activity where they solved a problem about liquid medications and then drew up the correct amount of water into a syringe to represent their answer. We had a great time using our medical math skills and applying them to real-world situations, and we are looking forward to seeing Kacie and Emily again for our tour of UMC next week on 2/18. #whirlwindpride 💚🌪️🩺

Floydada Collegiate ISD P-TECH The Floydada Post Office was courteous enough to host our Business pathway students this week for a tour of the facility, along with an informative discussion.

Yearbook SNAP is a way for teachers, administration, and parents to submit photos they've taken that might be beneficial for the 2025-2026 yearbook. Our yearbook staff isn't able to be present at every single event that takes place, and sometimes spectators take some of the best photos! Here's a way that you can help make our yearbook even better than ever before.

If you have any photos of junior high and/or high school students for the 2025-2026 year, feel free to share them with us.
