Hi families,

It's hard to believe our first nine weeks are almost behind us!

Ms. Holliday and I would love for you to join us this Thursday at 8:30 A.M. in the TIMA Gym for the first Parent Plug-In of the year. We'll look back on the first nine weeks, celebrate successes, and talk about where we can keep growing together. I'm especially curious to hear how you think student-led conferences are going, so please come ready to share your thoughts!

Can't make it? Our team is always just an email or phone call away, and we'd love to hear your ideas and suggestions anytime. We know it isn't always easy to get to school events during the day. We're working on an audio/visual option so you can stay connected with us, even when you can't be here in person.

If you're looking for even more ways to stay connected, consider signing up for TIMA's Parent Engagement Committee: Sign-up for volunteer opportunities here. Even if you can't attend the meetings, the minutes are full of ways you can get involved.

After all the hard work these first nine weeks, everyone has earned some downtime. We hope you all enjoy a restful fall break, and we look forward to seeing everyone refreshed when we return.

Thank you for being such an important part of our school community!

Kind regards,

Alicia Beck

Principal

Tybee Island Maritime Academy

The YMCA of Coastal Georgia offers a daily full childcare service on school holidays. You will have a peace-of-mind knowing your child is in a safe, fun, and educational environment while away from school.

Holiday Camps correspond with TIMA's upcoming breaks.

TIMA Families, we invite everyone to join us on Tuesday, Sept. 22 at 4pm in the TIMA Gym to celebrate an amazing TIMA teacher, Mr. John Klaras! New families, old families, current students, former students, new colleagues and old colleagues! We hope everyone will join us to thank Mr. Klaras for all he has done for this TIMA Community! We hope to see you there!

It's almost swim season! For those who are new, swim operates a little different than other Tide sports. We practice along with the rest of the district at the Chatham County Aquatic Center (7240 Sallie Mood). Coach Joy Rios takes the lead for the district and we have Coach Caroline Sauers to represent our TIMA swimmers. Please use the buttons below for links to the parent flyer and website.

Donate to Educate – Goodwill Donation Drive
Clean out your closets and support our school! A Goodwill truck will be parked on Lovell Ave by the gym for you to drop off gently used clothing, shoes, and household items. For every pound donated, our school earns $0.25 – up to $1,000!

📅 Friday, October 16 | 10 AM – 3 PM
📅 Saturday, October 17 | 10 AM – 3 PM

Every bag and box makes a difference—thank you for helping us reach our goal!

Our goal is to provide every teacher with one duty-free lunch each week—and we need your help to make it happen!

As a lunch volunteer, you’ll help students move through the lunch line, open lunch items, supervise students, tidy up between lunches, and occasionally tackle a spill or two. Most importantly, your time gives a TIMA teacher a chance to enjoy a well-deserved break during the school day.

Ready to help? Check out the available lunch volunteer slots and sign up using the button below!

Not yet a certified volunteer? No problem! Use the button below to visit our volunteer page and complete the required steps to get started.

We love seeing volunteers on campus! Volunteers must first be cleared through the VISTA background check process and have completed the required Praesidium training. Please complete the simple registration and application process . The system also enables us to track volunteer hours. Tracking volunteers is important to TIMA's grant initiatives. Please help us by ensuring you are tracking your volunteer hours
