TPS Principal's Page

🙌This morning the entire TPS community took pause to Stop & STEAM.  Organized by a committee of teachers led by Mrs. Chapalonis and Mrs. Robichaud, cross grade level buddies assembled together to design and build a device/structure.  Inspired by creatures in the "How to Catch a..." book series, students worked together to create some sort of "trap" that would catch leprechauns, garden fairies, tiny dinosaurs and more!  Student athlete volunteers from Framingham State joined in the fun, working with students, engaging in engineering design conversations and having fun! It was amazing to see what the students from k-8 were able to design and build.  I have no doubt they would be able to catch any creature with their ingenuity! There were a lot of pictures and videos taken. Unfortunately I couldn't fit all of the amazing pictures here on the blog. Be sure to check them out on the TPS Instragram (@tpswarriors)!  🎒Every Spring seems to sneak up on me and with i...

This has been a great first week in my new role! I was greeted by students each morning with such sweet and throughtful comments and questions about being the principal.  When I visited classrooms I was welcomed with sweet principal greetings. It made this week so very special! I am still smiling.  When I came to TPS, I came with the hopes of further developing the PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) structure that was in place.  For the next few weeks, I'd love to share more of what that looks on the day to day here!  Last year the PBIS Committee decided to celebrate students by electing "Warriors of the Month".  These students are recognized in each grade level for being a Warrior who has the qualities of being respectful, responsible and ready to learn. Each month their names are announced and their pictures are hung on our Warrior of the Month bulletin board located in the main hall. It's heartwarming to see classmates and peers celebrate the...
