Hello CommuniTEA!

We truly can't wait to begin the 25/26 school year tomorrow morning at 8:30am. Please allow a little extra time for drop off and don't forget to send 7th through 12th graders to school with their Crew Trip bags packed for gear check.

As we launch into a new school year, we wanted to share a special slide show that was enjoyed by faculty and staff at the start of our professional development last week. David asked 12 teachers to share a photo from the last year that encapsulated the student experience at TEA and the results were truly inspiring. Themes depicted include the powerful impact of pursuing real-world learning in meaningful ways both on and off campus, unique opportunities created by working with experts, and the joy of finding humor and connection during challenging times. The slides also illustrate perseverance in the face of adversity, and pride in accomplishments -- especially those that are hard fought. Finally, they depict excitement generated by inch wide and mile deep learning, the importance of service learning, and the tremendous satisfaction our students experience when pursuing their passions with the support of faculty. 

We look forward to a year filled with similarly beautiful and metaphoric images and thank you in advance for entrusting us with your children!
