May is Mental Health Awareness Month. The high school student council has organized initiatives to support mental health and break down stigma, while the "glimmer wall" at the high school is full of student reflections on positive glimmers that impact their lives.
REMINDER: 2026-2027 School Budget Vote and Election is tomorrow at the Ulysses Historical Society from Noon to 8pm!
The MS was a hive of activity this week! From the Art and STEAM Showcase on Wednesday; to both our Band 6 and our Band 7/8 ensembles earning silver at the NYSSMA Festival; to a truly awe-inspiring presentation by Roald Hoffman about his childhood experience surviving WWII; to trips to the Historical Society and Smith Woods; to a delightful spring concert from our 5th and 6th grade band a chorus students. Our kids are showing us how much they have grown this year as they continue to learn and have fun. Thank you, teachers and staff, for all of your extra efforts to make these events possible.
What a week!! We had a fabulous Steam Showcase and our Esperanza Rising kickoff! Students shared predictions about themes in this beautiful novel.
Congratulations to our FIVE Tburg students for presenting their final culminating projects for the New York State Seal of Biliteracy!

On Thursday, our 6th graders visited the Johnson Art Museum for a lesson on modern paintings and were then able to take a short tour around Cornell. Later in the day, they teamed up with their elementary-level reading buddies to share stories. Thank you, teachers, for working to create these experiences for our students. Learning outside of the classroom is fun!
Last week our fifth graders worked incredibly hard illustrating original haiku poetry for the Steam Showcase. We hope to see you there:
Wednesday at 5:30 in the elementary school.
Our MS students are having a blast during their climbing unit in PE class this month!
Spring sports at Tburg enjoying a rare sunny day!
On Friday we celebrated School Lunch Hero Day!! A great, big THANK YOU to all of our food service employees who prepare healthy meals for our students and staff every day.
Did you know that ALL students can pick up breakfast and lunch free of charge? Kids short on time can even "grab and go" from our mobile breakfast cart. Check it out!
We would love to see you there!
Last week our middle schoolers were out and about learning and having fun! Our 5th graders visited the Ulysses Philomathic Library to view the original artwork by Julian Plum featured in the poetry book, Who’s Tree is This, by Marylin Singer, while our Localvores had a field trip to the Farmland Animal Park. Friday night everyone had a ball dancing the Macarena!
Beware the Ides of March! Our 9th grade English students are bringing Shakespeare to life. To dive deep into the themes of power and ambition in Julius Caesar, students are acting out the various omens that predicted the dictator's fall.
We believe that even a heavy tragedy has room for some "goofy" fun to help reinforce these key literary ideas!
Last week, our middle schoolers had a blast walking over to the Trumansburg Library Spring Book Sale and picking up some books to further encourage their love of reading. There was something for everyone!
On Thursday, student National Honor Society leaders inducted our new NHS members. These students exemplify scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Congratulations to our new NHS inductees!
6th graders had a second visit from Kate Bajorek, a Cornell Graduate student of bio-archaeology. Students had a wonderful time "digging in" to an excavation lesson (using a plastic skeleton)!
4th graders have been working hard, digging into local data and researching laws to help support the village of Tburg becoming more accessible. Students presented to Mayor Hart to share their ideas and recommendations. What a great community collaboration!
PreK Pancake Breakfast in pajamas, what a fun morning! Students and families listened to Ms Laura from the Tburg Library read "If You Give a Pig a Pancake" and enjoyed pancakes and maple syrup boiled in our own STEAM Hub! Thank you to all our student and parent volunteers!
Congratulations to the high school cast of Cinderella! This year's musical was a wild success. The audience laughed, sighed, and was generally delighted with the production. A standing ovation on opening night says it all. What a wonderful weekend!
