RAIDER REPORT April 13, 2015
Volume III ✦ Number 30 MAJOR EVENTS
PRINCIPALS’ NOTES
What an awesome week of student participation and successes we experienced
at Tyler Lee. We had students win or place at district, regional and state
competitions; advancing to regional, state and national level competitions in a
wide variety of activities from Athletics to Career and Technology We had more
than a hundred student, staff, and parent volunteers taking pride in their school
by giving up a Saturday morning to lay more than 16,000 square feet of sod in
the Memorial Courtyard. Our award-winning drill team displayed their many
talents with two amazing public performances this weekend. Try measuring any
of these endeavors on a standardized test; it can’t be done.
So proud of our Tyler Lee Red Raiders!
