Giving Tuesday is on November 29th, 2022 this year. Twin Peaks is participating and we have set an ambitious goal of raising $20,000. This money will go directly to teacher and student support. With only a $25 donation per student we can make this happen! Please consider supporting Twin Peaks in our mission to help students seek truth, goodness, and beauty. Donations are open now, so you don't have to wait for the 29th to show your support!

Due to the weather and road conditions, school is canceled for tomorrow, November 18th, 2022. No remote learning, just a good ol' fashioned snow day! Have a wonderful snow day and a great Thanksgiving break! We will see you on Monday, November 28th!
With the forecast calling for snow tomorrow, it seemed like a good time to remind our community that we follow the district for closures and delays. However, at Twin Peaks, we do not do online learning on a snow day! We encourage reading, hot chocolate drinking, and snowman building instead!
