Break the Ice Social!

A big thank you to our amazing TEMS community! Thanks to your incredible support and participation, the first PTO event of the year, Break the Ice, was a huge success. We truly appreciate everyone who joined in and made it such a memorable event! 

Green Initiative

Each of us can make a difference by reducing, reusing, and recycling materials throughout our communities and encouraging our neighbors (and our kids) to do the same.   Did you know TEMS has recycling drop off available all year? See flyer below from the TEMS Green team.
