IT’S PEP RALLY TIME!!!!!!!

TWMS’s first virtual pep rally is tomorrow, Friday, April 24th at 3:30!! Grab your family, a big bowl of popcorn, curl up on the sofa and make yourself comfortable! This 24-minute video will make you smile, make you laugh and may even bring a tear to your eyes!

Check your email and/or parent alert at 3:30 tomorrow for the link to the pep rally. You say 3:30 doesn’t work for you? No worries…..we will keep this video on our ‘unlisted’ YouTube page for a few weeks for your convenience. You may want to go back and watch it again and again!

We are all missing each other so very much and hope this pep rally brings you closer to one another until the time we can all be back together again.

We miss and love you so much!

A special time that our teachers spend with students is devotion and prayer. With so much uncertainty going on, it is an incredible opportunity to share God's love and His word for comfort.

All our teachers are doing an outstanding job with our new online learning platform! We would much rather be in person, but the teachers are going above and beyond to make it the best it can be! All the while managing their own children's learning at home as well! Thank you to our teachers and staff for working tirelessly everyday to make sure our students are ready for next school year!

We are highlighting one of our kindergarten classes today. Mrs. Ebrey starts the day with the morning meeting with the whole class which consists of songs, calendar, weather, devotion, Bible verse, math, language arts and show and tell! Mrs. Ebrey also meets with each child individually every day. Thank you for your commitment to our families!

Third graders had a fun time choosing 2 items to compare and contrast and then sharing the information by creating their own Venn diagram.

Students at TWMS Preschool look forward to their video chats where they connect with classmates and their teachers!

Who is this teacher? Who’s daughter is this? I want to hug her. Does anyone know her?? She is my kind!
Hi teachers, we see y’all.
We miss y’all.
Do you miss us? (Don’t answer that.)

Our staff suited up for a 4th grade supply pick up! It was great to see some students and to see their smiles! We miss you all!

We miss you all and hope you are doing well!

Kindergarteners are hard at work! Thank you teachers for making learning fun! Students are showing evidence of Spring, doing math with legos, making sundials, baking, learning to tie their shoes and so much more!

Art class online! Amazing learning happening at TWMS!! Thank you teachers!!! Mrs. Saucier taught an art class and at the end of the lesson, taught the kids to say “I Love Art” in ASL.

Our leadership meets regularly and we pray over all of you constantly! We love and miss you all!

Today is the beginning of a new chapter for so many of us. Navigating home schooling may be frustrating at times and wonderful at other times. Be patient with each other and never take for granted the moments with your children. We will all be stronger and more appreciative after this.

We are praying for all of you! We miss you!

[03/15/20]   Due to the ever-changing situation regarding COVID-19 and in the best interest of the health, safety, and well-being of its students, staff, community, and the citizenship at large, TWMS will be closed next week, March 16-20. Teachers and staff will be working on determining how to help students stay current with remote learning.

Because the situation is so dynamic, we ask you to please stay tuned to our FB page and email. Our leadership team will meet again this week to determine our next steps. The health and safety of our students, families, and staff is of utmost importance.

20 (1st through 6th grade)TWMS students participated in the ACSI Speech Meet last week. Participating in a Speech Meet helps students develop effective public speaking skills in a an audience setting. Out of the 20 students, 14 students medaled and of the 14, 6 received gold medals. We are so proud of these hard working students!

At the end of each month we celebrate together at our Family Friday event. We gather for breakfast and a special devotion before school starts. It is a great opportunity for fellowship and to buy some resale uniforms, raffle tickets and photo project pictures. We are so thankful for our PEO for their faithful support of the school and for our Student Ambassadors who helped greet and serve!
