Happening in the Beehive...

Welcome to a new school year at TMSE! I am so excited to start our SIXTH year, and I am so glad to have your family as part of the adventure!

Learning to Be IB!

At TMSE, we are working hard to become IB Learners. The qualities of an IB Learner include: reflective, open-minded, thinker, inquisitive, risk-taker, knowledgeable, communicator, principled, caring, and balanced. Throughout the school year, we work to build these qualities in all learners, knowing that all students already display many of these qualities. We want them to know it, too!

It's a short week.


It's a short week! I am actually not a fan of short weeks. It seems like they get all discombobulated, and I almost always forget something important. Although, this short week is pretty special to us. Some of you probably know, but my husband Josh is an Army veteran. He served 8 years, more than 3 of them with the 6th Ranger Training Battalion at Eglin Air Force base in Florida. It's a REALLY long story, but the Army is actually what brought us to Tuscaloosa. For that, I am so grateful! We have so much love and respect for veterans of all branches, and I look forward to Veteran's Day every year because I am so thankful to have my veteran with me to celebrate.

Please don't forget to SELL THOSE ORANGES. :) Orders are due on Wednesday. Thank you so much to families who have already returned them to school. 

I can't believe that we only have 9 school days until Thanksgiving Break. Wow! Time flies.
