Volume 1, Issue 14: 3/28/24

Greetings Bulldogs! Happy Thursday. This is a friendly reminder that we have no school tomorrow (3/29/24).

 

TISD Bond Community Meeting:

I want to thank the folks who came out to our Bond Community Presentation on March 20th. We had great conversations and great questions were asked by all.

If you missed the meeting and would still like to hear about the bond proposal I encourage you to join us on April 18th, 2024 at 6pm at the VFW Hall. It is a repeat of the first session.

Also, have you checked out the 2024 TISD Bond informational website?

TISD Student Shout Outs:

If you are not able to keep up with us on Facebook, I would hate for you to miss out on all the celebrations! I can’t possibly capture them all in my Blog that comes out every two weeks, but let me give you a glimpse of just a sliver of the excellence here in TISD:
 

The Bulldog Band!
The Band performed yesterday at the Region 18/26 UIL Concert & Sight-reading Evaluation in Bastrop and had an outstanding performance. They received straight 1's for their stage performance and straight 1's in the sight-reading room. This, combined with the first division from the marching contest earned the band its 8th consecutive Sweepstakes Award! 

National Honor Society New Inductees!

Congratulations to the newest NHS members! *Not pictured - Stiles Patin

They will be joining our all-star cast of returning NHS members:
