Principal's Message
Dear Thomas Families,
We had a wonderful Veterans Day program on Monday. Veterans that are connected to our school community were the guests of honor, and students showed them great respect. Mrs. Arcaro, our music teacher, prepared students in each grade level to sing a song, and fifth grade student leaders narrated the event.
I felt so proud of our school community during this program, and appreciative of our Veterans! Please enjoy some short video clips of the assembly below.
Go Tigers,
Melissa Garris
