On Monday, Mr. Daugherty had the honor of being taped to our flagpole by the three classes that met their reading goals first!
Mrs. Knepp's PM 4K class, Mrs. Lee's 5K class, and Mrs. Jackson's 1st grade class worked together to tape Mr. Daugherty to the pole. He then treated the classes to a special reading of "Pete the Cat!"
It was a great day to be a reader at TRE! 💚📖🎉
Ms. Staggs' kindergarten class just hatched beautiful butterflies! 🦋
The students were so excited to release them and say goodbye to their new fluttery friends.

For the past week, Mrs. Rice and Ms. Wood's classes have been earning money to spend at their class ice cream store! 🍨🍦🪙
Students practiced their math skills by counting their money, deciding what they wanted, and deciding what they could get from the store with the amount of money they earned. What a great (and tasty) example of using math in the real world!
This week, we're celebrating the amazing educators who inspire, nurture, and empower our students every day! 🎉 Let's take a moment to show our gratitude for their hard work and dedication.
We invite you to give a shoutout to your Terrier teachers in the comments below! 💬👇 Share a special memory or let them know how they've made a difference in your life.

On Friday, April 18th, our third-grade students showcased their creativity and hard work during the much-anticipated Annual Wax Museum. Families, friends, and faculty gathered in the school cafeteria to witness a spectacular display of historical figures brought to life by our Terriers.
Dressed in costumes that represented their chosen figures, each student took on the role of a notable character, ranging from famous inventors and artists to influential leaders. The students spent weeks researching their figures, learning about their contributions to society, and practicing their presentations.
As attendees explored the exhibits, they were greeted by a variety of characters who shared fascinating insights about their lives and achievements. From athletes like Michael Jordan to civil rights leaders such as Malala Yousafzai, the students exhibited not only their knowledge but also their passion for history.
The event not only highlighted the students' academic achievements but also fostered confidence and public speaking skills. Our First Annual Wax Museum was a huge success and a memorable experience for all involved. We look forward to next year’s event and can’t wait to see what our future third graders will bring to the stage!

We are so excited to announce that Christie Lautrey is the Support Employee of the Year for District Five Schools! She works hard to make sure that TRE is a safe and clean place for our Terrier Family to learn.
In her nomination, Mr. Daugherty shared that Lautrey has been a key part of the school winning the district's "Shining Star" award three times in a row this year. "Christie is a huge asset here at Tyger River Elementary," he says. "Outside of her daily tasks, she greets our kids (especially our multilingual students every day as they enter), and translates if we need someone quickly to communicate. She has been instrumental in making our Hispanic families feel welcome and safe."
We are so grateful to have Christie as part of the TRE family!
