Tiger Tales

Dear Tolman, Elementary Families,

As we come to the close of another wonderful school year, I want to take a moment to sincerely thank each and every one of you for the kindness, support, and warmth you have shown me throughout this year.

Stepping into the role of principal at Tolman Elementary came during a difficult and unique time for the school community. Even so, from the very beginning, I was welcomed with open arms by our incredible students, dedicated staff, and amazing families. Your support, encouragement, and trust have meant more to me than I can fully express.

It has truly been a privilege to serve as your principal this year. I have loved getting to know our students, celebrating their successes, watching them grow, and working alongside such caring educators and families who make Tolman Elementary such a special place. The strength and heart of this community are something I will always be grateful for.

While I am excited for everyone to enjoy a well-deserved summer filled with rest, fun, and time with loved ones, I am already looking forward to returning next year for another amazing year together at Tolman Elementary.

Thank you again for allowing me to be part of this wonderful community. I wish all of our Tolman families a safe, happy, and memorable summer break!

With sincere gratitude,

Cameron Forbush

Dear Tolman parents,

We would like to thank all the wonderful parents and teachers who have volunteered their time this year to support all of our PTA activities. It has been a fun filled year with so many great activities. We have been able to support our students and teachers through these great activities. We couldn’t do all that we do without your monetary donations (Tiger Trot) and giving of your time. We really appreciate all your support and look forward to another great year!

Sincerely,

The PTA Board

Exciting News! The Tolman Elementary Library will be open for checkouts during the summer. Students can come to the library on Tuesdays between 9:00-10:30am to check-in and check-out books. There is a fun reading incentive for the students to read for at least 20 minutes for 45 days this summer. Fill out the tracker they brought home and bring it to the library to get a token for every 5 days that have been read. There will be a special event for the students that read all 45 days!

We are still working on our ROAR expectations (especially with all the fun things happening here at school).

Be sure to encourage your students to be great tigers and continue to make safe choices when at school!

Tolman Tigers are:

Respectful - Treat others, yourself, and property with care.

On Task - Pay attention and do your job.

Accountable - Take ownership of your actions and choices.

Responsible - Do what is expected and make safe choices.

Congratulations to all our 6th graders as they finish elementary and move on to Jr. High next year!
