Our child did Pre-K at TPS and is now in Kindergarten. I can't begin to describe the growth I've seen in him since he began TPS. He loves going to school, is curious about the world and nature, and comes home everyday asking questions about the world around him. We couldn't be happier with our decision.

When I asked my daughter what her favorite part of TPS is she answered without hesitation, "the teachers!"

It has been humbling to watch the way they have navigated this past year with such grace and flexibility. My daughter has thrived as a community member and a learner and I am incredibly grateful.

Our daughter has thrived here. She's learning to love learning, to tackle problems with confidence, to be an empathetic friend and citizen, to self-reflect, to think independently, and more. They way they teacher here is so different from how I learned growing up, and in my opinion, is much better b...
