Day 2 of the 6th grade field trip = a huge success!






Feeling the love at TMS today! 💖 During Bus Appreciation Week, our incredible bus drivers started their morning with a special breakfast to say thank you for keeping our students safe every day. 🚍 Teachers also enjoyed a cozy coffee & hot chocolate bar — smiles all around! Thank you to our amazing PTO!💖
Topsail Middle School is currently seeking a Head Baseball Coach for the upcoming season. If you are interested, we encourage you to apply!

Our 6th graders had an amazing Day 1 at iFLY! Students stepped into the vertical wind tunnel to:
🔬Explore how fluids exert external forces on objects (science, yay!) 🔬
➗Apply algebraic thinking to understand proportional relationships (math, yay!) ➗
📊Investigate variability, uncertainty, and error in experimental results (science & math, yay!) 📊
Seeing concepts come to life made learning unforgettable—more pictures to come from the rest of our 6th graders going tomorrow and Thursday!
