Join us at Arvest Ballpark tonight as our TJ Tigers sing the National Anthem on the field before the game. Tickets can be purchased at the gate tonight if you didn't pre-order. Students should meet Mrs. Bush in the community room at 6:20. Go Naturals!
Students recently celebrated National Parks Week in Global Connections! In honor of the park rangers who look after these important places, kindergarten through second grade students made their very own ranger vest. We loved seeing the creativity and personality - from pockets to hold snacks and water bottles to first aid kits, our TJ Tigers definitely know what it means to apply the 'plan and prepare' principle of Leave No Trace.
A great part of our students' day at TJ is activity! Give a big hooray for our activity team: Mrs. McConnell (library), Mrs. Bush (music), Mrs. Beaird (library aide), Mrs. Shock (global connections), Mrs. Gibson (digital literacy), Mrs. Baker (art), and Ms. Neal (PE)!
Thank you to our TJ Instructional Assistants for all of their hard work. They are the most flexible staff members you've ever met, and they take on every task with a smile!
Join us for Muffins With Misses Friday morning. Remember to bring your ID to check in at the office, and let us know if your students needs a "Miss" to join them!
You may think Mrs. Carlson and Mrs. Rogers are the "bosses" at TJ, but it's really our front office ladies who keep this ship afloat! Happy Administrative Professionals Day to Mrs. Julie (registrar), Ms. Donna (bookkeeper), and Mrs. Terri (attendance clerk). Thank you for keeping our front office and our school running smoothly!
Thank you to Mrs. Helton (math coach) and Mrs. Dewey (literacy coach) for helping our teachers dig into their curriculum. You help us maintain a focus on student progress and learning. We appreciate you!
