Dear Tiger Families,

As we approach the final weeks of the school year, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support. Your involvement, encouragement, and partnership have made a meaningful difference in your child’s learning journey. We have seen tremendous growth in our students this year—academically, socially, and emotionally—and we are incredibly proud of all the hard work they have put in.

While the year is winding down, our commitment to providing high-quality instruction remains strong. Teachers are continuing to engage students in meaningful lessons while also incorporating some fun and memorable activities to celebrate the end of the year. These experiences help reinforce learning while building a positive classroom community as we close out the year together.

We ask for your help in providing some feedback for our PBIS programs within our building. Please click HERE to access our survey and help inform our future programming for next year!

Please be sure to check your child’s folder regularly and stay connected through our school website and Facebook page for updates, reminders, and event details. We have several exciting activities coming up, and we want to ensure all families are informed and can take part in the celebrations. Thank you again for all you do to support your child and our school community!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Witt                                        Mr. Crowder

Our teachers demonstrate unwavering dedication to our students every single day. Long after the final bell rings, they spend countless hours planning engaging lessons, preparing materials, and finding new ways to meet the diverse needs of every learner in their classroom. Whether it’s staying late to tutor a struggling student, taking time to send encouraging notes, or celebrating small victories, their acts of kindness often go unnoticed but are deeply felt by our school community. They are more than educators — they are mentors, cheerleaders, and role models who invest their time, energy, and hearts into helping students grow.

In the classroom and beyond, our teachers go above and beyond to ensure every child feels supported, safe, and seen. They are a steady shoulder to lean on during tough times and a guiding hand when students need direction. Their patience, creativity, and compassion form the foundation of our school’s success. Please take a moment to reach out and let your child’s teacher know how much you appreciate all they do. A simple note or word of thanks can go a long way in showing them just how valued they are

You are invited to our school-wide Art Show on Friday, May 23rd, 2025! This event is open to all family members. Our talented Tigers have been working hard all year to create stunning masterpieces, and we can't wait for you to see their creativity on full display. From vibrant paintings to imaginative sculptures, each piece reflects the hard work, growth, and artistic expression of our amazing students.

To help with traffic flow and provide a smooth experience for everyone, we kindly ask that families follow the suggested arrival times: Kindergarten and First Grade families at 9:45 a.m., Second and Third Grade families at 10:15 a.m., and Fourth and Fifth Grade families at 10:45 a.m. Fifth Grade families attending the band concert are welcome to enjoy the art show after the concert concludes. Families with students in multiple grades may choose whichever time works best for them. We look forward to celebrating your child’s creativity with you!

Members of the Elementary Beta Club showed their commitment to service and school pride by spending time after school on their last day before Easter break cleaning up litter across the school grounds. These hard-working students filled several bags of trash and removed larger debris from the school drive, stretching from the Grant Street entrance up to the back of the high school. Their efforts made a noticeable difference and helped beautify the campus just in time for spring.

In the near future, the Beta Club hopes to continue their clean-up efforts by tackling the litter along the sidewalk and ditch on Milton Blvd. Their dedication to keeping the community clean sets a strong example for all students. A big thank you goes to Mrs. Sembach for her leadership and ongoing dedication to the Beta Club. Her guidance and enthusiasm continue to inspire students to make a positive impact on their school and community.
