Bravo Tappan Players!
Congratulations to our Tappan players for an outstanding production of Shrek Jr. this weekend! Shout out to our many parent volunteers and staff who helped make this a success! We could not be more proud of our students and Tappan community.
We Are Halfway There!
The PTO Council is halfway to our goal for the 2026 $30 for 30k fundraiser! We need your help to get over the finish line!
PTO income varies across elementary schools in the district with a range of $87 per student per year to $245 per student per year. PTO income tends to be higher at schools with fewer economically disadvantaged students and at less diverse schools, compounding inequity for AAPS students and families. Please consider donating $30 (or more) to help increase Ann Arbor Title I schools’ per pupil spending. If you can’t donate at this time, help spread the word about the fundraiser in our community.
