Dear TLS Families,
As January comes to a close, 2015 came in quite quickly here at Trinity Lutheran School. It has been an exciting month full of
activities and action taking place around school. Between daily learning instruction, science fair project preparation, girls and boys
basketball, cheerleading, academic team preparation, and much more the students of Trinity Lutheran School continue to grow
spiritually and academically every day.
I am very excited to say that we have implemented a new positive behavior program here at TLS. There are so many well behaved
students here at Trinity that follow the daily expectations around school. When these expectations are followed, the teachers and
staff are recognizing these students. Each time a student or class is caught being safe, respectful, and responsible the children are
given a “Panther Praise.” Right now the classes are working towards a classroom goal of 50 to earn an extra recess. A huge shout
out to Mrs. Zieba’s PK class for reaching their goal first! Great job, PK!!! (We Are Safe, Respectful, and Responsible attached)
I would also like to take the time to personally thank Mr. Scott Ringwald for sharing his time and talents with the boys’ basketball
program at TLS for over 20 years. Scott has spent countless hours coaching, teaching, and sharing his love for basketball with the
students of TLS. Thank you for your service and passion for Trinity Lutheran School.
Thank you all for your continued support and prayers for Trinity Lutheran School as we continue to guide, direct, and teach through
our ministry at TLS.
In Christ,
Missy Adams
