That warm welcome sets a positive, encouraging tone and builds a strong community before the first bell even rings. -From the desks of admin team🚪✨
I am thrilled to celebrate two outstanding team members who go above and beyond for our school community! These recipients are proactive. -Mr. Sims🏆

🚌 Squeezing in one more page: Our amazing readers showing their dedication by getting some extra reading time in while waiting for the bus.
🪙 Vouchers well spent: We are absolutely loving the excitement as students trade in their hard-earned reward vouchers for brand-new titles from the book vending machine!
🌟 Leading the way. Our amazing student leaders stepping up and setting a fantastic, positive example as we start off the new school year!
📚 Library love: Students getting learning how to go on word hunts to find words they know, building their literacy skills in the library.

📚 Where will reading take our youngest learners? ✨
Our Pre-K students at TCES are having a wonderful time visiting the library this year! By diving deep into story elements, they are developing an early love for literacy and discovering the magic of books. 📖
These early experiences build strong foundational skills, helping our readers transform into future writers as they keep up the momentum for a lifetime of learning! ✏️🌟

Today, we want to take a moment to celebrate the man at the helm of our school, our Principal, Mr. Sims.
Mr. Sims wears many hats, and his unique journey is what makes him such an incredible leader for our students and staff. From the front lines to the classroom, and now to the front office, his impact is felt in every hallway of our school.
Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge. He leads with fairness, resilience, and collaborative thinking. Through the various activities he organizes, he has successfully bridged the gap between faculty and students, turning our school into a true learning community.
Thank you, Mr. Sims, for taking such great care of us. Your transition from soldier and scientist to principal has been a gift to this school, and we are so proud to follow your lead!

Let's Run, Splash, and Have FUN!
It’s official! This year, we are combining Field Day and Water Day into one massive celebration. To make sure your student is ready for the games (and the splashes), order your official T-shirt through our online portal or pay in cash/check at school.
