Halloween at School

Students are allowed to wear a costume to school on Halloween Day which is Tuesday, October 31st. We will not allow any weapons (real or toy), and a mask can only be worn during our Costume Parade.

Picture Day!

Dear Parents,

Picture day is November 2. Attached you will find a PDF of our school’s FALL picture day flyer. The PDF is hyperlinked directly to our schools online ordering event. All that needs to be done to go to our online portal is to click anywhere on either page of the attached PDF. This will then take you directly to our school's ordering page. You can also access the online ordering portal by going to www.mymjthomas.com and entering our school's Online Code (NM422). You may also print this order form and attach a check or cash and bring it in on picture day!

Carlos Gilbert Merch

We have some great Carlos Gilbert gear! Get your stuff at the online shop :)

The one-of-a-kind tie-die t-shirts were hand-dyed by a couple of awesome PTK volunteers and are available in a nice range of sizes.

There are terrific baseball caps and some wild color-changing cups. Chilly lately? Pick up a nice Blackhawks zipper sweatshirt! AND more! New: YETI Tumblers and $5 Water Bottles

Lost & Found

The Lost and Found box that is located right outside the cafeteria entrance is already filled up. SO, while you are at the school for PTC take a look and let's get some items home!
