Executive Director Message

May 2026
 
Dear Tillotson Families, 
 
As we step into May, I’m reminded of how quickly the school year moves in its final stretch. This month is always a mix of reflection and anticipation—celebrating how much our students have grown while looking ahead to the exciting transitions on the horizon!
 
May is a busy time, filled with activities, assessments, and cherished traditions. It’s also a time to appreciate the dedication of our teachers and staff, who pour so much energy into making these final months meaningful for every student.
 
Recent Happenings
 
Our students got to display their creativity at our Art & Music Showcase in April! They performed songs, dances, and showed their masterpieces that they worked very hard on. State testing also continued this month, and will be wrapping up at the end of May!
