Message from Dr. TRESler and Mr. Hiel:
Dear Retriever Families,
It’s hard to believe that we are closing another school year already! Looking through the TRES yearbooks that were delivered yesterday, reminds us of what a busy and fun filled school year we had! In addition to all of the academic work during the school day, we came together as a diverse community to celebrate with concerts and special events, such as the Retriever Rally! A special thank you to Kerry Guilfoyle who captured and collected these moments. If you attended a PTA or other TRES event, you likely saw Kerry there behind the camera. Kerry has spent countless hours putting together the yearbook the past two years. We are grateful for her time and care.
This will be the last Retriever Report for the 2025-2026 school year. The first Retriever Report for the upcoming school year will be sent in early August. We wish all of our TRES families a safe summer full of positive family memory making!
Warm Regards,
Dr. Tiffany TRESler, Principal
Kory Hiel, Assistant Principal

Counselors' Corner - A Message from Mrs. Wolf and Ms. Diaz
Counselors' Corner - A Message from Mrs. Wolf and Ms. Diaz:
With this being the last blurb of the year, we want to THANK YOU for sending us your precious treasures this year. With partnership and teamwork, your Retriever has developed new skills in the areas of social emotional development, academics, friendship, and more. (And we've learned a lot from the kiddos, too!)
Best wishes to Ms. Diaz who has accepted a full-time school counseling position at Clemens Crossing Elementary School. Mrs. Wolf will definitely miss her collaboration and care! Additionally, we warmly welcome Ms. Desir (pronounced "Dayzeer") to TRES as the new .5 school counselor.
Have a wonderful summer together! Be sure to keep a balance of reading, writing, math practice, outdoor play, creativity, and of course CARE for yourself and others.
