TJL Weekly Update

TJL
Dear TJL Families,

It was such a joy to welcome our students back from February break (and our snow days!). The energy in the building this past week has been wonderful, and it has been so nice to see everyone together again.

This past weekend, our TJL PTA MVP Dance was an absolute blast, with so many smiles and special memories made! Then last night, we enjoyed a fabulous evening at the PTA Council Harborfields Got Talent show. Congratulations to all of our TJL performers...we are incredibly proud of each of you for sharing your talents and shining so brightly on stage!

Wishing you a fantastic day,
Mrs. Washington
