A Note from the Principal
Dear Timber Ridge Parents,
It has been an honor to work with your students this year. I have thoroughly enjoyed my first year as principal at Timber Ridge Elementary. We appreciate the partnership you have created with us to ensure your child's success.
You should have received a parent survey from us on Thursday. Please share your thoughts on how we are completing our mission as a campus. We will use this information as we make our Campus Improvement Plan for next year. Please return the survey as soon as you can.
Our teachers and support staff have worked very hard this year. Please help us recognize their efforts next week during Teacher Appreciation Week. We will be rolling out the red carpet and hope you will take a moment to show your appreciation as well.
We have a lot of ways that parents can assist us in the coming weeks such as Field Day, academic awards, and Teacher Appreciation Week. Please read below for more information. Thank you for all you do for our Timber Ridge students!
Your Principal,
Mrs. Dockery

Career Week
From Ms. Beaule, Counselor:
Parents,
We would like to invite you to help us celebrate Career Week during the week of May 21st-25th at Timber Ridge. During this week, our students will engage in a variety of classroom activities, with the goal of thinking about future careers. As part of our learning, we would like to invite parents to come and “Show and Tell” about their career. Students get excited when their parents come to school to share about their careers! Additionally, on the Friday of that week we will have a “Careers on Wheels” display.
If you are interested in participating in Career Week, please contact your child's classroom teacher. Below are also some helpful tips as you think about your career presentation:
• Presentations should be kept to about 15-20 minutes.
• Remember to keep content and language of the presentation kid-friendly.
• You may wear your uniform if you would like.
• You may bring posters tools, etc. to help students better understand your job.
