There is Help. There is Hope. | |

Build a Book
Combine the fun of crafting and drawing with the magic of story telling. Help your child spark their imaginations by creating a storybook together. Use paper, crayons, markers, and colored pencils to tell a story in images. As a parent, assist as needed with writing words to the story which accompany the illustrations. Books created can be saved in a home library, or shared with family member.

Checking Email Doesn't Have to be Scary.
Slow down, read, and always consider the consequences before clicking. Email is an easy doorway for viruses to creep on to your computer. It is also a sneaky way for outsiders to gather your personal information. Do not be so easily tricked.

TPSS is committed to excellence!
