On Friday, May 28th, our 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-grade Truman MLLs enjoyed an amazing, hands-on reptile presentation with Chloe from Slither and Swim! Students got to observe and interact with live animals, providing a fun, low-pressure space to build their vocabulary and practice speaking, listening, and discussing their observations in English.
A massive, heartfelt thank you to Dr. Jaca for sponsoring this event and stepping in to save the day—we couldn't have done it without you!
We also celebrated our exiting MLLs last Thursday with a well-deserved library pizza party to honor all of their hard work. 🍕✨
Have a wonderful summer, and we'll see you in the Fall! ☀️

What better way to wrap up the school year than reading outdoors all together? Our amazing Truman 3rd and 5th-grade students had the absolute best time soaking up the sunshine, diving into great books, and enjoying some delicious popsicles alongside their teachers, Ms. Brown, Ms. Gomez, Ms. Nai, and Ms. Pasan!
It was the perfect celebration to cap off a wonderful year of learning and community spirit!
Daring Adventure or Dangerous Risk?
That is the big question our incredible 7th-grade Bilingual students explored as they finalized their end-of-year projects! Inspired by Ms. Taracena’s daughter—who was recently accepted into an astronaut program—the students crafted original stories and brought them to life using creative models and drawings.
Our talented 7th bilingual graders proudly showcased their stellar work to Dr. Jaca and all Bilingual classes during a fantastic, interactive interdisciplinary event!
Way to go to our amazing young scientists and storytellers!

Get ready to beat the "summer slide" with Truman School’s exciting 2026 Summer Reading Challenge! Launched by Instructional Literacy Coach Miss Brenda Allen, this challenge invites students to dive into their favorite books all summer long to keep their literacy skills sharp.
Participation is simple and fun: kids just read whatever they love, track their titles, and rate each book on their reading log. The best part? Bringing a completed log back in September earns them a ticket into a raffle for an awesome Grand Prize Basket!

Dear Truman families,
Thank you so much for all your effort in helping us with this year's Chalk Festival! Thanks to your incredible support, we raised twice as much as last year! Even though we had to adapt to the rain, we still had a wonderful day.
Prizes & Celebrations:
We will be distributing prizes during the morning announcements this Monday. The prize bundles are packed full of fun treats and toys!
Ms. Nabakooza and Ms. Villa are especially proud of the students. They showed amazing teamwork and creativity, making beautiful art despite having to switch up their materials and move to a new location.
Thank you again for making this event such a huge success!

Congratulations to all our students who made 100% of their Stretch Growth on the iReady Diagnostic. Great job mathematicians!!
After a year of exchanging letters with students from Andorra / Europe, our 2nd grade bilingual students finally met today in a thrilling grand finale video call! It was the perfect conclusion to their pen-pal journey, allowing them to chat live and compare the differences between life "here and there." Seeing a year of friendship come alive on screen proved that connection bridges any distance!
