TPMS Book Fair 2023
We're so excited to invite you to our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair! Hosted by our TPMS Library, this event is an opportunity for students to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our school. The fair will take place from March 20th-March 24th and will be open before school, during lunch and after school. Students will also visit the fair with their Language Arts teachers. We will also be open on March 22nd for our Family Night Book Fair from 4:30pm-6:30pm during the Twin Peaks 5th Grade Information Night. We need parent volunteers. Shifts are short and always fun! Please contact Joy Kurosaka at joykurosaka@gmail.com if you have questions about volunteer opportunities.

We hope to see your student come out for the team! Any questions about wrestling please reach out to Matti Romero at mamiller@powayusd.com
Online Registration for 23-24 NOW OPEN!
Online Continuing Student Registration will be open from March 1- March 31, 2023. Parents and Guardians will receive an email notification once the website is open. We must receive a completed digital packet for all returning students. This will allow for proper placement of your student for the 2023-2024 school year. This annual digital process will allow a family to complete one single “family” packet instead of completing one packet per student. Packets can be completed using any computer, tablet or smartphone with an internet connection.
In preparation for online registration, now is the time to confirm that you know your parent login username and password. This information will be needed to complete the registration packet. Please take a moment and ensure you can log into https://sis.powayusd.com. If you do not know your username and/or password, you can visit https://password.powayusd.com to retrieve your login credentials. If you are not planning to return to PUSD for the 2023-2024 school year, please email me at stmills@powayusd.com as soon as possible so we can prepare any needed documents for your new school.
Attendance Corner
Early Release: If your student needs to leave campus early, please call the Attendance Hotline at least one hour before you are picking them up.
Due to very heavy traffic with both schools getting out for the day, and busses needing to park up front, please arrange to pick them up no later than 2:45pm.
When you arrive to pick up your student, please come into the front office, have your ID ready and sign your student out.
If you need to authorize someone else to pick up your student, please let attendance know ahead of time when you call the Attendance Hotline. The designated person must have their ID and be able to show that they are over the age of 18.
