Ok, here we go again! The principals are PLANNING to camp out on the roof tomorrow night - Tues, April 9 - so tune in for updates, FB live coverage, and lots of pics. Let's hope it's not cold, rainy, or windy, but nothing will stop them now! (fingers crossed!)
TGS loves a reward!
While this week has been our Spring Break, it has also been National Assistant Principals Week, a celebration of the unsung heroes in our education system. These dedicated folks work tirelessly to bolster teachers, motivate students, support their principal, create a positive learning community, and face the many unpredictable challenges that land on their desk.
Assistant Principals play a crucial role, and this week is a dedicated time to recognize them for their hard work and commitment to our schools, students, and profession. Please join us in celebrating these incredible school leaders!
Thank you, Mrs. Tarver and Mr. Taylor!
Thank you, Mrs. Renfroe, for keeping us interested in reading! On National Media Specialist Appreciation Day and every day, we celebrate you and the way you work so hard for our TGS students! Enjoy your week away!
We may be on spring break, but we can't let the day pass without celebrating our fabulously amazing paras on National Paraprofessional Appreciation Day! We truly value and appreciate all you do for our staff and our students. Hope you're all enjoying a restful and relaxing week!

Due to a dismal weather forecast for tomorrow night, the principals' plan to spend the night on the roof must be postponed. Due to other conflicts, this will be rescheduled after we return from Spring Break. The good news is that we have longer to anticipate the fun of rewards!

Don't forget that tomorrow is PJ Day! What a great way to start the week, especially the Monday after Spring Forward! (Hope you didn't forget that either!) #tgscott #readathon #rewards #goals # pajamaday
