Our third graders enjoyed watching The Lightning Thief today! ⚡️ They were excellent audience members and did a great job representing TES!

We were honored to welcome Mrs. Kentucky to our school yesterday! 👑🐯 She shared her heart for serving others as she introduced a new **service project supporting foster children**. Our students learned how small acts of kindness can make a big difference in someone else’s life. 💙 Mrs. Kentucky also encouraged students to make healthy choices, talked about the importance of good nutrition, and reminded everyone that they can be their own superhero by taking care of their bodies and making positive decisions each day. 🦸‍♀️🍎 Thank you, Mrs. Kentucky, for inspiring our Tigers to serve others, live healthy, and shine from the inside out! ✨

TES Families: Remember to RSVP for our VIP breakfast if you plan to attend on one of the dates! We ask that forms be turned in tomorrow.

TES 2nd graders recently participated in a Literacy Lock-in after school that focused on children’s book author, Jan Brett. Students got to learn more about her life as an author, listen to her books and learn where her inspiration for each book came from, build upon their comprehension skills, do a craft, and enjoy themed food. All students who attended also got to take home their own copy of The Mitten. It was a great night full of literacy! On behalf of the students and teachers, we want to thank our parent volunteers, as well as the Spencer County Educational Foundation for their help in making this event possible!
