Tiger News
November 3, 2023
Hello Tiger Families!
We had our Open House event this week and got to meet all of our future Tigers. The energy was AMAZING, and it was fantastic to get to tell so many families about all the great things happening at our school. We had a wonderful selection of sessions for students and parents to attend…including sessions on core subjects, electives, a student panel. and a clubs & activities meet and greet.
One theme that has emerged the past couple weeks is around kindness and empathy. We have been working with students to remind them of the importance of being thoughtful and kind in our communication and how to think about the perspectives of others. These skills are invaluable, and it is so important that students get the guidance from both school and parents around these important topics. This year, we have been working on building some of these skills through intentional lessons in our Advisory class.
Have a great weekend!
Thank you to our EMS Sponsor of the Week!
