TPS will be on a 2-hour delay for tomorrow: Monday, 1/20. If temps drop in the early morning, and will remain dangerously low past 10a, we will notify families no later than 8a if we need to shift from a delay to a virtual learning.

TPS Families, we have just sent today's Sunday Update via email, which includes a very important message at the top about learning format possibilities for tomorrow's school day due to the extremely cold temps. Please take a look as soon as you are able. We will communicate final determination by this evening. Stay safe and warm!
TPS will be having a good old fashioned SNOW DAY tomorrow – Friday, January 10. There will be NO VIRTUAL LEARNING. We are expecting up to 4 more inches of snow. We hope that families will have an opportunity to play outside, snuggle up with a good book in the warmth of their homes, or a little bit of both! Wishing everyone a safe and peaceful weekend.
TPS Families, please check your email and phone messages for an announcement about an old fashioned snow day tomorrow! There will be no classes - neither in person nor virtual. We hope that everyone has a safe and joyful day, and a peaceful weekend!
MCCSC has just announced that tomorrow (Thursday) will be a full day of school. And so TPS will have one, as well. We look forward to seeing all students by 8:15a. It is going to be very cold tomorrow. Please make sure kiddos are bundled up!
Hello TPS Families! Please remember that tomorrow (Thursday, 1.9) is school picture day! We will be doing them even if a delay is called, and will try to get to everyone. Please send your kiddos ready!
School will be closed tomorrow (Tuesday), and we'll be having a virtual learning day. Teachers are finalizing information to send to families. There will be NO synchronized activity, and technology use will not be required. Be on the lookout for two emails later today: one from your classroom teacher, and one from the school. Both will contain the information you need, including learning activities and contact information for support. Wishing you continued warmth and comfort on this very snowy day. Our thanks to the amazing city and county street crews for working round the clock to keep everyone safe!
Wishing all our families and staff a safe, peaceful, and restorative winter break. We will return to classes on Tuesday, January 7. Until then, we hope that the beginning of your New Year is full of joy and light!
Welcome back from Thanksgiving break, TPS families! We have so many special happenings in these few remaining weeks of the calendar year. We look forward to seeing your children and you!

The TPS Board of Directors Meeting scheduled for this afternoon – Thursday, November 21 – has been postponed, due to a winter weather advisory. We will share information as soon as a rescheduled meeting has been confirmed.
TPS families, final reminder -- lost and found is overflowing! We are having all classes do a walk-thru tomorrow. After school Friday, unclaimed items will be donated. If your child is missing something, please stop by the school to check!
All systems now appear to be a go for in-person school today. We will look forward to having your children with us by 8:15a. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we awaited this news.
Power and alarm issues continue at school. We hope to be in person tomorrow. But w/o consistent power we can't have a fire safety system, food, or phone, and so cannot hold classes. It's likely we will not have info from Duke and Koorsen (emergency management) until early morning, and can then make a determination. Pls arrange now for childcare in case we are not in person. We will send a message to families by 7a regarding in-person vs. virtual (at home). If virtual, we will also share at-home learning expectations. There will be choices that do not require tech and that will, as much as possible, be able to be completed independently. Thank you for your understanding.
Due to the damage to our smoke detector system caused by this afternoon's downtown power outage, we will unfortunately need to postpone tonight's International Night. We are all disappointed, and will hope to be able to reschedule for sometime soon. Thank you for your understanding. Our number one commitment is to the safety of our students, staff, and guests.
