Our small classroom sizes not only allow for personal assistance but for exceptional activities to be completed. We want every student to know that they matter to TP Schools.

Academic & Character Award
National Junior Honor Society
The National Junior Honor Society is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding middle-level students. More than just an honor roll, NJHS serves to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, character, and citizenship. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1929.
Student Council
Student Council gives members an opportunity to develop leadership skills by organizing and carrying out school activities and service projects. In addition to planning events that contribute to school spirit and community welfare, the student council is the voice of the student body.

The teaching staff chooses the recipient of this award; the decision is based on the following criteria: character, leadership, courage, service, and scholarship.
