Message from Mr. Tempel 6/20

There is much more to follow in 2025-26, but that's all for 2024-25.

There are only a few days remaining of school! Keep up the good work until the end! Thank you so much for your support for our TIS community and your students!

It has been a pleasure working with TIS for the past five years! I will always remember the people, the beautiful campus, and the community that was built around this school. I know TIS will continue to grow and help students find success in school and after they graduate. Thank you, TIS!

As the school year winds down, so does a meaningful chapter for me. It’s been a true pleasure to serve the middle school and secondary students of the TIS community, along with their families and our dedicated staff.

When I first arrived, we were a school of 300, navigating the uncertainty of COVID. Creativity and teamwork carried us through, helping us stay safe, grounded, and connected. I’ll always be proud of the resilience we showed together. That spirit became part of the TIS culture.

Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of growing with this community as we expanded to nearly 500 students. The students of TIS are among the world’s best and brightest. I’ve felt lucky to be part of your journeys, and I have no doubt that you will go on to do remarkable things. Know that I will be cheering you on from afar.

Once a Tiger, always a Tiger.
