A Season of Thanks . . .
November brings the season of Thanksgiving. At Timberline we want to always have an attitude of gratitude. Here are some things that I am thankful for:
We are thankful for . . . amazing students who come every day ready to work hard and love learning.
We are thankful for . . . an incredible staff that is dedicated and works hard to give all our students solid instructional practices and pushes them to achieve in every subject area. They work extremely hard to make sure that we have a successful school year.
We are thankful for . . . parents who attend conferences and attend activities. They show all of us support through donations, fundraisers, and saying thank you when we see them.
We are thankful for . . . a dedicated PTO, that provides amazing support and plans outstanding events for us.
We are thankful for . . . an outstanding start to the school year!
We are so thankful for. . . our Timberline family!
So Grateful,
Mrs. Bowens, Principal
Mr. Inhelder
