Today was the BEST day at school! 🎉🌈

Our students had an absolute BLAST during today’s Color Run! Students who raised at least $25 for our Donation Drive earned the opportunity to participate, and the excitement, laughter, and school spirit were unforgettable.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our families, friends, and community, we raised an amazing $8,500 during this year’s Donation Drive! Thank you to everyone who donated and shared our fundraising page. Your support helps make exciting experiences possible for our students, including PBIS rewards, assemblies, student activities, and so much more.

Also, congratulations to our Donation Drive raffle winners!

We are so proud of our students and grateful for our supportive school community. Already looking forward to an even bigger and better Color Run next year! 💙

This week, we celebrated our incredible TDA staff during Teacher Appreciation Week! 💙🍎

Without their dedication, hard work, and commitment, we would not be where we are today. Every day, our teachers and staff pour countless hours into supporting our school community and showing love, care, and encouragement to our students.

We are truly blessed to have such an amazing team, and we appreciate them more than words can express. Thank you for all that you do to inspire, support, and make a difference in the lives of our students each and every day. Our school is stronger because of you! ✨

🎉 Congratulations to last week’s challenge winner, Paola! She and a friend of her choice enjoyed a special ride in our SRO’s police car to grab ice cream after lunch—what a fun reward! 🚓🍦

This week’s challenge is on! The class with the most donations by 9:00 AM this Friday will win a class set of squishy pens AND an extra recess! ✏️🎈

Right now, only 61 students have raised at least $25 to participate in the Color Run on May 15th. Don’t miss out—be sure to bring in your $25 tomorrow!

Let’s go, everyone! 💪🐬

🎉 Congratulations to our April Perfect Attendance Students and our Leaders of the Month! We are so proud of your dedication and the way you stepped up as problem solvers—thinking critically, staying positive, and working through challenges with perseverance.

As we move into May, our focus is on gratitude. Gratitude means taking time to notice and appreciate the good things in our lives—whether it’s the support of a friend, the encouragement of a teacher, or the opportunities we have each day to learn and grow. Practicing gratitude helps build a positive mindset and strengthens our school community.

Let’s make May a month full of appreciation and kindness! 💙 🐬

Congratulations to our newest Perfect Attendance winners and Leaders of the Month!🐬

This month, our PBIS focus is on problem-solving—helping students take ownership of challenges and work toward positive solutions. In action, this means students are learning to identify problems, stay calm, think through possible solutions, and choose actions that lead to positive outcomes for themselves and others.

We are proud of our Dolphins for showing growth, responsibility, and leadership every day!

We’ll be looking for students who:
• Treat others equally
• Take turns and share
• Follow rules and expectations
• Make thoughtful, fair decisions

Keep showing us what great leadership looks like, Dolphins! 🐬
