Hello TPS Community,
Another incredible school year has drawn to a close, and what a journey it has been!
The last few days of the school year bring a mix of emotions—excitement for summer adventures, pride in all we've accomplished, and yes, some sadness as we say farewell to those moving on to new chapters. The energy is contagious as students, families, and staff celebrate another year of growth, learning, and community building.We all have so much to be proud of. Well done, TPS!
Your School Committee shares that pride in our school community as well and welcomes you to review the amazing progress made in our schools this year in their 24-25 State of the District Review letter linked below. Their collective leadership and focus on students and their support for those who serve students is outstanding. As a proud member of this community myself, I can confidently say that Tewksbury is a GREAT place to come to school AND it is also a GREAT place to wind down over the summer.
What can you do in Tewksbury, you ask?
Well, it begins with a Summer Kick-Off celebration on June 17th (see below). Then, students and families can enjoy some time outside at our many parks around town, playgrounds, and splash pad at Saunders Recreational Facility and Fields. Ride your bikes or stroll along some of our rail trail and nature trails. Spend time watching a baseball game at one of our ballfields, and while you're there, visit our local public health museum. Learn to golf or play tennis, or get your game on at some of our local entertainment centers and restaurants too; as they have been so supportive to our students all school year. Don’t forget our public library — there’s always so much to do there.
Parents looking for full-day summer programs, organized activities, or events through the Town Recreation Department, please see the links below too. And of course, we encourage our students to read, read, read over the summer on their own, with their families, or together with friends. Our summer reading program is linked below, along with some fun math practice and learning websites. Don’t forget to fit in some downtime and play with your brothers, sisters, and friends, probably the best activity of all! No matter how you choose to spend your break, both the assistant superintendent and I wish you all a happy, healthy, and relaxing summer.
Sincerely,
Brenda Theriault-Regan
Nancy Milligan
