🐯TIGER TROT- Friday, October 2nd🐯

Mark your calendars, the Terra Linda Tiger Trot is Friday, October 2nd!  The Tiger Trot is our main fundraising event for the year and a huge highlight for the kids. Packets have been sent home with more information about the event and how to continue gathering pledges. Pledges will help them earn prizes for their grade level and school! If you have any questions please email Lauren Hopkins at tigertrot@terralindaptc.org 

You can donate to the Tiger Trot through Pledgestar https://pledgestar.com/terralinda/

Money raised during the Tiger Trot goes directly to OUR school to help OUR kids!

During the  following times, all students will do a warmup with Mr. Inwards, then have 20 minutes to run/jog/walk with their grade level classes.

      • Kinder – 1:35-2:20
      • 1st Grade – 12:45-1:30
      • 2/3 Grade – 10:20-11:05
      • 4th Grade – 11:20-12:05
      • 5th Grade – 8:35-9:20
      • SRC – 9:30-10:15

On the day of the event, students will receive their Tiger Trot t-shirts to wear while they participate. We will have music playing, an inflatable arch at the start line, and pom poms for cheering. 

Families are welcome to attend as a visitor (please sign in at the office before heading to the track) to cheer on students or sign up to help volunteer at the event  in ParentSquare. We hope to see you there! 

* If you are bringing younger children with you, please do not allow them to use playground equipment as we don’t have liability coverage for visitors during the school day.  

We are beyond Grrrrrr-ateful to our Tiger Trot Sponsors!

school directory

We are putting together a School Directory to help families connect with each other throughout the 2026-27 school year. The directory is a great way to reach out to volunteers, arrange playdates or carpools, and to stay in touch with classmates and their families. Participation is optional, and only the phone &/or email information you choose to share will be included. This year we are being asked to generate the directory by opting IN, instead of the usual opting out. If you would like to be included in this year’s directory, please take a moment to fill out this Directory Form. Thank you for helping us build a stronger, more connected school community!
