Shoutout to Tippecanoe High School Spanish teacher Ashley Ridge and her students from the last eight years who were recognized by The Pulsera Project, a program that supports artisans and communities in Central America. THS has raised almost $17,000 by selling hand-woven purses and bracelets. Team Pulsera presented the "longtime friends at Tippecanoe High School" with a banner crafted on a backstrap loom, a traditional and deeply culturally significant weaving technique passed down through generations of Mayan ancestors. #WEareTIPP #thepulseraproject

Broadway Elementary students in the class of April Taylor read Mr. Peabody's Apples. The book's theme is that our words are powerful, and we need to think about how our words may make someone feel. Once we say something, we cannot take our words back. As a related activity, the students were asked to get all the toothpaste out of the tube and then once they were finished, they were told to put it back in the tube. They quickly realized this was impossible, leading to a discussion of thinking before we speak and how important it is to use kind words. #WEareTIPP
Thank you, Gleaner Life Insurance Society, Miami Valley Arbor, and The Beehive Coffee Company, for treating Broadway staff and parents to specialty coffees and other tasty beverages on the first day of the new school year. We appreciate the surprise! #WEareTIPP
