Proven Success in Workshop Teaching
For the past 2 years, TKS has fully implemented workshop teaching as our reading and writing program. It has significantly improved our literacy scores and has elevated the level of work the students are producing. This New York Times article supports the true success of Reader's Workshop in the classroom.
TKS Yearbook Dedication Ads - Due Monday, April 30th
Be sure to get your TKS Yearbook Dedication Ads completed by Monday.
Custom Dedication Ads come in a variety of sizes and we even have a special "shout out" message available. It's easy - click here, create an account, select Dedication Ad and upload your favorite photos - family photos, classroom photos and even your family pets. Lots of options and plenty of ways to celebrate. Help make this year's 2017-18 Yearbook extra special!
Volunteers STILL Needed
Hurray! With the Teacher Appreciation Dinner just around the corner, you have an additional opportunity to earn some volunteer hours by helping with aftercare, giving our fabulous TKS faculty and staff the opportunity to enjoy each others company for an evening of thanks and celebration. Without your support, they will be unable to attend the dinner, so we need parent volunteers to step in for aftercare duty.
When? Thursday, May 10. The volunteer slots are in 90 minute increments (you can survive 90 minutes!!) and are by age level (PreK1, PreK2, K-1, and 2-6). Or, if you're feeling a little wary, sign up for front desk duty!

Cinco de Mayo Festivities
Sr. Mendez still needs items for our annual Cinco de Mayo celebration! He is requesting donations of medium sized piñatas, non-meltable candies and small toys and/or party favors por favor. Thank you to those who have already donated items!
All classes will be smashing piñatas on Friday (May 4th) and Monday (May 7th). The Mexican lunch celebration for K-5th grade students and teachers will be on Taco Tuesday, May 8th (El Fenix will be served for PreK ONLY that day). PreK will enjoy Mexican pan dulce for morning snack during Spanish time.
