Thanks to the participation, support and generosity of our sponsors, players and volunteers, the TMS “2018 Patriot Open” on May 6 was a tremendous success! This annual sporting event raised $5,000 for gym uniforms for our Patriot athletes. Hats off to Coach Thompson for leading up the tournament.

Grade 6 IB students recently enjoyed a Parisian breakfast of croissants, vegetable tarts, fruit and other delectable goodies at a quarterly IB breakfast sponsored by a team of their Moms. Stuart Cafe buzzed with friendship, fellowship and laughter. Special thanks to the Patriot Parents who served up a memorable celebration.
