As we teach math, science, reading, writing and more, we seek to build students who are reflective thinkers, problem solvers, and risk takers.

Welcome to Thomson
Elementary School
Dear Thomson Tiger Families,
Welcome to VIRTUAL Thomson Elementary School for the 2020-21 school year. While it is a year that begins very differently than any other, we look forward to connecting with some and reconnecting with most in the weeks ahead.
Our mission and vision come alive as we seek to develop internationally-minded learners who take charge of their learning, are invested in their own
success, and find meaningful ways to take action in their community and beyond. Even in a virtual
classroom this is our aim. We know that with your help and cooperation, this will be an attainable
goal.
