Welcome Back, Terrific Tigers!


Welcome to a brand-new school year at Three Bridges School! There is something extra special about the start of a new school year. We are buzzing with the excitement of seeing familiar faces, welcoming new friends, meeting new teachers, and discovering all the possibilities that a fresh year brings. This year, that excitement is even bigger because Three Bridges School has been transformed with some amazing new additions!


A Playground Made for Big Fun!

If you have been anywhere near our school this summer, you probably noticed our brand-new, HUGE playground and swings! Our Terrific Tigers now have an incredible new space to climb, swing, slide, explore, imagine, and PLAY!

The new playground is already becoming a favorite place for our students, and we can't wait to see the friendships, adventures, and memories that will happen there throughout the year. It is the perfect addition to a school that believes children should have plenty of opportunities to learn, move, laugh, and enjoy being kids.


Five-Star Restrooms?!

You read that correctly! Our first-grade hallway bathroom renovation has given our students beautifully updated restrooms that feel more like a five-star experience than a school bathroom!

This renovation is more than just a facelift. These bright, fresh, modern spaces provide our students with a comfortable and welcoming environment and are another example of the care and attention being invested in Three Bridges School.


New Spaces for New Learning

Our building has also gained new instructional spaces designed to give our students and teachers additional opportunities to learn, collaborate, create, and grow. These spaces will allow us to continue thinking creatively about how we use our building to support the needs of every Terrific Tiger.

And there's more!

New Smartboards have been added to our classrooms, bringing enhanced technology and interactive learning opportunities right to our students. These new tools will help teachers make lessons even more engaging, visual, collaborative, and interactive.


Meet Our New Terrific Tigers!

A new school year also means new faces joining our Three Bridges family! Throughout this newsletter, you'll have the opportunity to meet the newest members of our staff. We are thrilled to welcome these talented educators and staff members to TBS and know they will quickly become an important part of our school community.

While we have some wonderful new faces, we also have the incredible staff members who make Three Bridges School the special place it is year after year. Together, we are ready to make this an unforgettable year for our students.


There is so much to be excited about!

The halls are filled with energy, the classrooms are ready, the playground is waiting, and our Terrific

Tigers are back!


Let's make it an incredible year together!


Yours in Tiger Spirit,
Dr. Higgins
