We couldn’t let today end without thanking the true superheroes of the TIS front office — Emily and Nidia! From hunting down subs to juggling 12 things at once, you keep this place from falling apart (and somehow do it with a smile). Happy Administrative Professionals Day to the queens of calm in a sea of chaos! #AdministrativeProfessionalsDay #TISSTRONG

We are so proud of our 4th grader, Stella Hall, for receiving the Character in Action Award tonight! The students selected for the Character in Action Awards are chosen based upon their demonstrations of exemplary character in the areas of respect, self-discipline, responsibility, citizenship, friendship, fairness, perseverance and courage—and Stella truly embodies all of these qualities. Stella takes initiative in the classroom and in Kindness Crew to step out of her comfort zone and promote kindness and positivity. Stella views challenges not as obstacles but opportunities to learn and grow. Stella is always inclusive, making sure no one feels left out and everyone has a friend to lean on. Stella’s courtesy and genuine care for others makes her standout in any group. Congratulations, Stella! Your heart and character inspire us all.
