They believe kids already have enough on their plates when they get home so why give them more work to do. They do all the work in class.

I love the community feel. My children have only been attending for a bit over a year, but they feel welcomed and part of a team. The teachers are attentive and the principal is very approachable.

TMS is a school where you get to know allot of the teachers and their work ethics. My niece is from Oklahoma and shy. She was a little leery of changing classes, but found she really likes Middle school. She has several friends, and favorite classes. I feel she has come a long way this year. She is at Cispus this week and I'm waiting to see how that went. The office workers are very helpful. I think TMS has allot of potentials.
