👏🏼Student Spotlight: There’s quite a bit of magic happening behind the scenes at the THS Center for Performing Arts. 🎭✨With all of our musical programs taking the stage, it takes serious work to make every moment look and sound flawless. That’s where these two incredible students come in. 👇
🎭 Tippecanoe Middle School 8th grader – Savannah Gambill
🎧 Tippecanoe High School 9th grader – Naomi Sharpnack
Naomi and Savannah have been volunteering their time to learn the technical side of theatre, including lighting, sound, cues, equipment, and practicing these skills side by side with teacher Candice Jasinski. All of the shows are at night. They show up. They stay late. And they do it all with huge enthusiasm and professionalism. 🙌This is dedication, and we are impressed by the way they’ve chosen to immerse themselves in this opportunity. Our performances shine brighter and sound better because of them.🌟Please join us in recognizing them! #WEareTIPP #tippcityschools #behindthescenes #studentleaders #techcrew #learningopportunity

Who doesn’t love cozy flannels, a cup of hot chocolate, and a viewing of The Polar Express? 🚂☕❄️L.T. Ball third graders in Heather Bledsoe’s class snuggled in for a Polar Express “book-to-movie” experience.

Broadway Elementary was buzzing with holiday cheer! 🎄✨Our amazing parent group, PIE, turned the building into the Little Elves Workshop, where students spent time crafting special “masterpieces” for the people they love. 💝We can’t show the gifts just yet (top-secret elf business 🤫🎁), but we can say this: There was glitter (and a little mess). There was creativity. There was ribbon.🎁🎀Thank you to PIE for organizing this beloved tradition, and to all the volunteers who helped our little elves bring their ideas to life. These gifts will mean so much to the lucky families who receive them. 🥹❤️#WEareTIPP #tippcityschools #creativity #thankyou #giftsmadewithlove
