Student Council Supports a Neighboring School in Need
This week, the TGS Student Council proudly presented a donation to Neoga CUSD #3 to support their recovery efforts after a devastating tornado earlier this spring.
Through selling snacks to 6th grade students and staff during study hall, our students raised funds to help fellow students rebuild and recover.
We’re incredibly proud of their compassion, leadership, and commitment to community.
Storytime under the sun!
Mrs. Breer's kindergarteners and their amazing second-grade buddies teamed up for some joyful reading on the playground today. There’s nothing better than books, buddies, and a little fresh air!

Mrs. Kreke's kindergarten mathematicians explored nonstandard units of measurement—and what better tools than their own shoe prints and bodies?
They measured the ramp in the East Wing using themselves as rulers. Who knew math could be this fun?
Kindergarten students in Mrs. Jansen's kindergarten class had so much fun working on their math facts with our amazing DO student, Madi Deters. We love seeing our little learners excited about numbers and getting support from such wonderful role models.

Shoutout to our amazing 4th graders in Mrs. Schackmann's ELA class!
They recently wrapped up their biography presentations, and wow—what a journey through history it was!
From the brave explorations of Ernest Shackleton, to the inspiring story of Anne Frank, to the guiding strength of Sacagawea, our students brought these incredible figures to life with creativity and heart.
So proud of all their hard work and curiosity!
March Madness isn’t just for basketball — Mrs. Repking’s and Mrs. Willman’s First Grade classes have been having their own Picture Book March Madness tournament! Students started with a sweet 16 bracket of picture books and voted all the way down to the final 2… and the champions are in!
In Mrs. Repking’s class, the winner is… “The Book that Can Read Your Mind”! It took the crown by just 2 votes — talk about a close game!
In Mrs. Willman’s class, the champion is… “OVERDUE: The Misadventure of Bob the Book”! What a title!
They had so much fun reading and voting — a big shoutout to all our young readers for diving into every story.
Our first grade students had the honor of learning from local veterans during a meaningful Flag Presentation. They explored the rich history of the American flag and discovered the importance of respecting and caring for it.
To make the experience even more special, each student received their very own flag to take home!
We are so grateful to the veterans who shared their time and stories with us. Thank you for your service and dedication.
Mrs. Breer's kindergarten class is sending out a huge THANK YOU to the TEF for making their mini-grant dreams come true! The kiddos are absolutely loving all the new experiences and opportunities this grant has provided.
Your kindness and generosity make a difference every day!
