Principal's Warrior Wrap-Up: 3/6/26

🏀I am so excited to share that Melissa DuBois and Megan Butler have organized a Girls' Basketball Club! Read the message below and thank you to Melissa and Megan for organizing this for our Warriors!

Calling All 1st-5th Grade Girls!

Join us for a fun, new, *FREE* after-school GIRLS' BASKETBALL CLUB at the TPS gym after school every Friday from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM, starting March 20th. Led by two TPS moms (Coach Melissa DuBois of the girls' middle school team and Megan Butler), this clinic is designed to create a joyful, positive space where girls can develop self-confidence on the court and learn the fundamentals of the game. Our goal is to foster a genuine love for basketball by focusing on fundamental skills and teamwork in a way that feels empowering rather than intimidating. By celebrating personal growth and skill-building on the court, we aim to give every player the foundational tools and the confidence they need to (hopefully!) try out for the middle school team.

To learn more, check out the Electronic Blue Folder for the flyer! To sign up your child up, please use this form.

You can also reach out to Melissa or Megan by emailing them at melissadubois2@gmail.com and butler.meganr@gmail.com!

📘The Book Fair is coming and we need your help! Right now, we need volunteers to help with shopping during school hours and during the Family Shopping Night! Please sign up for a time on this form if you are able to help out. If you have questions, please reach out to Jessie Trowbridge at jessie.trowbridge@gmail.com.

🎥The PTA Movie Night is 3/13! Check out your Warrior's backpack and the Electronic Blue Folder for more information! We'll celebrate Movie Night with PJ Day on Friday 3/13!

👉The MyCAP team (My Career and Academic Plan) is looking for community support to continue the mission of helping students think about their future plans now. If you would be willing to share information about your career with students at an evening community STEAM night in June then we ask you to please fill out this form so that we may determine interest and plan what the evening might look like. More information will follow and we thank you for considering sharing your knowledge and expertise with our TPS Warriors.

😊More on MyCAP! I love the work that Mrs. Rayner is doing with middle schoolers on MyCAP during their library rotation! Please read her blurb she shared below!

Thank you to the families and guests who have presented, or will be presenting, in our College and Career Readiness middle school classes. Your presentations have been very beneficial in helping students broaden their awareness of the wide variety of career options available to them.

We truly appreciate the time and effort you have taken to share your experiences and insights with our students.

Thank you! Mrs. Rayner
