Y’all Rock So Hard!!
Here’s to all you 4th grade parents with a special call out to Kim O’Driscoll for organizing yet another super successful Thunderbird event!
And it wouldn’t have been so fun without all the wonderful families who came and laughed, ate, drank, AND donated to support our kiddos.
Our school events always serve to affirm to me what a special school and community we have. We are SO LUCKY!

Summer Chicken Crew
We need a team of volunteers to help care for the THES chickens over the summer. Training will be provided and we are looking for families to take care of the chickens for a week at a time. This will involve coming to the school daily to feed/water, clean the coop and let them roam free for a bit. For more information, please contact volunteers@travisheightselementary.com.
