TES had an extra special visitor yesterday! 🦙🎉

Caesar the No Drama Llama and his human, Larry, joined us as a special celebration because our students met our schoolwide I-Ready Math goal!

Our students and staff absolutely loved spending time with Caesar, giving hugs, taking pictures, and enjoying this unique reward. We are so proud of the hard work, perseverance, and growth our students showed throughout the year to reach this goal.

A huge thank you to Larry and Caesar for making the day so memorable and for bringing so many smiles to TES! ❤️

We wanted to share a few more pictures from our surprise visit from Dante Moore on Monday!

We are so grateful that Dante took time out of his busy schedule to visit TES, connect with our students, and spread such a positive message. His kindness, encouragement, and willingness to give back made a lasting impression on our school community. Thank you, Dante, for making our day so special!
