Last week our amazing PTO celebrated Teacher Appreciation early and we felt truly cared for! We enjoyed breakfast from Wendy’s, Sheetz, and McDonald’s, a delicious catered lunch from City Cafe, and a rejuvenating tune-up from Dr. B of Alpha Osteopractic.

Our 5th grade students at TMS had an incredible opportunity to visit the Fort Fisher State Historic Site! Students explored the museum, participated in a guided tour, and experienced engaging reenactments that brought history to life. This hands-on experience was perfectly connected to our 5th grade Social Studies curriculum and helped deepen students’ understanding of our nation’s past.






Congratulations to the 8th grade band! They traveled to Ashley HS this week for the annual state Music Performance Adjudication. They came back with the highest scores they've had since 2016, with an overall rating of "Excellent" and a "Superior" rating in sight reading. Please congratulate these students on their great performance. And yes, don't be alarmed if you see Mr. Norem's hair a different color in the next few weeks.
