Come on Tigers .... send in that candy!


Dear Tiger Families,
We are excited to announce sign-ups for this year’s Tiger Tales Club are now open! We’re making a few changes to help grow the program, make it more intentional and give students new opportunities to shine.
✨ What’s New This Year
We will be accepting the first 20 students from grades K-3. For grades 4th and 5th, students may apply to be a Tiger Tales Ambassador. We will select 10 Ambassadors. Being a Tiger Tales Ambassador is a leadership role. Ambassadors will not only participate in the fun but also help guide and learn alongside our younger Tiger Tales members (K–3). Please note: not all students who sign up or apply will be accepted.
Families will be notified of acceptance for both membership and ambassador positions by October 9th.
