William L Thompson School

4th graders putting teamwork into action during indoor recess! 🤝🧠
So fun to see them synergizing, problem-solving, and building together.

Thompson’s Student Lighthouse Team proudly participated in the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Lake Villa this weekend. Our students represented Thompson with great energy and Tiger pride as they joined the community in celebrating this fun local tradition. Thank you to our Student Lighthouse members for being such wonderful ambassadors for our school and for demonstrating leadership both in and out of the classroom. We are proud of the way they continue to represent Thompson Elementary in our community. 🍀🐯

We are proud to announce our Lake County Regional Office of Education nominee, Mandy Marshall, Elementary Teacher.

She builds strong relationships with students and families, creating a supportive classroom environment where every child feels valued and capable of success.

We love when kindergarteners make their way to the office to show off their new reading skills.

Today we celebrated students who embody Leader in Me Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood with a student of the month ceremony. Teachers nominated one student and presented them with a certificate.
