This Giving Tuesday, we are writing to ask you to consider donating to TLC Public Charter School. This amazing school was founded in 2018 because there’s a significant gap in educational options that are inclusive to students with disabilities.
Every day, TLC students, parents and educators demonstrate that inclusion is possible and preferable for kids with disabilities, kids who do not have disabilities, kids who are gifted, kids who are English language learners, kids from a range of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and kids with diverse life experiences of all kinds. Don’t just take our word for it – watch this video and see for yourself.
This Tuesday, the Walton Family Foundation will match every single donation up to $25,000. This means when you donate $50, the school will receive $100.
Please consider donating here!
Please join us to find out more about TLC! We will share information about our academic program, educational approach and philosophy, school-wide enrichments, and day-to-day life at our school. Dr. Tunney will provide an overview for all, and will also be available to answer any questions that you have. We look forward to welcoming you!
First off, we would like to say thank you to all of the families who attended our first TLCCA meeting and Parent Workshop of the year. Dr. Tunney offered many ways to be involved, including volunteering during the school day, joining our handy club and more! You will have another opportunity to sign up at Back to School night next Wednesday on September 18th at 6pm.
Our TLCCA (TLC Community Association) President Haydee Lares offered opportunities in participating with Fundraising, event committees and more as well and she will also be there at Back to School night.
To be conducive to our inclusivity, the meeting was conducted in English and Spanish. Some families were asking about resources and ways to talk to their own children about making friends and the diversity at TLC so we have compiled a few references. Here is a few things to keep in mind:
*Note: There are many of lines of thought on this matter and there is no “right way” to speak, however these general guides can be useful and we encourage you to get to know families who may have more individual insight.

Our 1st Annual TLC Turkey “Trot/Walk/Roll” was an all-inclusive activity for all our students and it sure was fun! TLC families also worked together to collect and donate food and supplies for our local food bank. After our Trot, Walk, & Roll, our students gathered together with families and friends to eat together and watch a school video about what our students were grateful for in their lives. We at TLC are grateful for a wonderful community!
TLC students enjoyed their first field trip to Tanaka Farms on Thursday, October 25, 2018. Thanks to all the parents and staff who made this trip a memorable one!
