This week at Tarkington middle school Mrs. Tooley had her students participate in a "True Colors" activity where students learn about their personalities and communication. Most importantly, they learned how to communicate with others who may not be like their personality. Thank you to Mr. McDonald for leading a student body conversation over TISD Core Values: Integrity, Accountability, Pursuit of Excellence and Courage. It has been an awesome week at Tarkington Middle School

The "Big Move" continues! This time with help from our student athletes in addition to staff and administrators and Dr. Davis' husband, John Davis - BIG thank you! It's the final phase of our transition to create better learning opportunities and space for our students by moving Tarkington Early Childhood School (TECS) for Pre-K and Kindergarten to what was formerly the Intermediate campus, and Tarkington Elementary School (TES) for grades 1-5 to the Primary campus. Great job, Longhorns! #LonghornNation #longhornsforlife #summer2023

The Big Move has begun! We've entered the last phase of our transition to create better learning opportunities and space for our students. Tarkington Early Childhood School (TECS) for Pre-K and Kindergarten has moved to what was formerly the Intermediate campus, and Tarkington Elementary School (TES) for grades 1-5 will now be at what was the Primary campus. Dr. Davis and our central office staff and administrators, campus staff and administrators and faculty (and even their kids), as well as our athletics coaches and students, have all pitched in alongside our maintenance and custodial staff to make this move happen. It's not quite finished, but teamwork makes the dream work! Thanks, everyone! We see your hard work and we appreciate you! #HornsUp #LonghornNation #summer2023

8th grade students were tasked with creating a three-dimensional robot made from cylinders, prisms, cones, and spheres. The robot must have a head, body, arms, and legs and must stand up on its own. Once their robot is created, the students must find the volume of each figure and the total volume of their completed robot. They have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity for creative freedom and have been competing to make the tallest robot with the largest volume.

Monday TMS teachers were treated with a snow cone at lunch courtesy of FCA. Tuesday, TMS teachers had to find a $10 gift card from somewhere in each cup. Teachers came in and punched one cup to get their card. The cookies came from Crumbl Cookie. So it was Cookies and "Punch"!
