Weekly Message
Our students have worked so hard on their testing! We just have Acadience testing left for most of the classes. Remind your student to do their best!
As we enter the spring season and temperatures begin to warm, we would like to remind families about our school dress code expectations. To support clarity, we have a visual that highlights the areas of the body that should be covered according to our student handbook. Students are expected to be dressed from shoulders to mid-thigh, and clothing should not reveal undergarments at any time.
We appreciate your support in helping your student come to school dressed appropriately each day and ready to learn. If a dress code concern arises, students will be asked to call home so that appropriate clothing can be brought to the school.
Thank you for partnering with us to maintain a respectful and focused learning environment for all students.

Tolman Tigers ROAR
We have updated our school expectations posters all around the school to simplify and streamline our plan. All of the students have been introduced to what these behaviors look like in the cafeteria, assemblies, hallways, bathrooms, and on the playground. We would love parent support by using similar language with your student(s) when they are at home.
Students are still working for class root beer float parties with the principal, and they are also earning individual recognition from the principal. Encourage your student(s) to follow these expectations and earn some rewards!
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.
