TN Families— This afternoon we had to issue a “soft lockdown” due to a staff member having a medical emergency. A “soft lockdown” is when all exterior doors are secured, yet instruction & movement still occurs within the building. In this case, however, we had to keep all students in their classrooms so AMR could assist our staff member. We appreciate those families in the parent pick-up line that moved so AMR could get in & out of the building. Our staff member is doing well due the quick response from our TN staff. If you have any questions or clarifications, please contact the office. Thank you, -Katie Bivens

TNES Families-- Registration for TNES Camp Invention closed last week. We are working on finalizing the lists & will send confirmation emails to families by the end of this week. If you have any questions, please reach out to Principal Bivens &/or the office. Thank you!
