TES Student Council Members have organized a drive to collect food and supplies for families in need. The drive will begin Wednesday, March 12th and runs through Friday, March 28th. Donations can be dropped off in the main lobby at TES. We appreciate your support.

Congratulations to Evan Cote, Tyngsborough High School who recently visited Washington DC as one of two students from Massachusetts selected for the US Senate Youth Program. TES is very proud of you!

Last week, first and second grade classes welcomed members of the Tyngsborough Middle School Student Council. Students read to the students and then collaborated on an activity. Thank you TMS for joining us!

Our TES School Counseling website is a great resource for students and families! Find information on social-emotional learning, student support services, and helpful resources. Visit the site here: TES School Counselors Website.

Each year all students must have an updated Student Information Form submitted through the parent portal. The information form, accessible through the parent portal, is used to collect items such as family information, emergency contact data, and medical permissions. It is crucial that you complete this form as soon as possible. Failure to submit this form will affect your student’s ability to attend field trips, participate in after-school activities, and receive medications from the school nurse.
