Senior Handoff Event- At TPS, we believe school pride is more than just spirit days and school colors – it’s about belonging, leadership, and leaving a legacy. To celebrate this, we are excited to invite you to a traditional ‘passing of the torch’ ceremony that takes place between seniors and kindergarten students and highlights Patriot Pride. If you would like to join us, the details are below:

DATE: May 22, 2026

TIME: 8:35 AM (the ceremony will last approximately 15 minutes)

LOCATION: Patriot Field. You will be allowed to enter the school office at 8:20 a.m. to make your way down to the field through the closed campus gates.


Field Day Help- If you are cleared and would like to help for Field Day, please see THIS sign up. Kindergarten will visit Field Day on May 28, from 8:30-9:30. 


Sight words- The students will take one final sight word reading test. Please be sure to have your child practice reading all of the kindergarten sight words, which can be found in their BEE binder, or on our website


Library Books- All library books are now due. If your child has any past due books at home, please send them to school ASAP so you do not receive a fine. 


End of Year Party- The Cholico- Serna family has graciously offered to provide a taco lunch for our students for our end of year party on May 28. The day will be full of fun and here are the details you need to know:

Community Helpers- The kindergarteners are learning about Community Helpers in history. If you are a Community Helper and would like to share about your profession with our students, please sign up HERE. If you already signed up- thank you! Please see the scheduling email, sent to you by Mrs. Kirkendall, to choose a presentation day that fits your schedule. 


Kindergarten Promotion- Kindergarten promotion will be at 8:45 on May 29. Each family has received 5 tickets, and everyone in attendance will need a ticket, including infants who do not take a seat. Students go home after the ceremony, around 9:45. If you have a TPS student that will be using one of your tickets for kindergarten promotion, please fill out THIS form, so they can be released at the correct time.


Summer Work Packet- An optional summer work packet was sent home in your child's BEE binder today. Optional reading fluency passages and directions will be sent home by May 22. Practicing the passages is a great way to help build your child's reading fluency.


No School- In honor of Memorial Day, there is no school on Monday, May 25. 


Report Cards- Report cards will be sent home in your child's BEE binder on May 27.
