Tigers worked together last year to help save Tillicum. Let's keep working together to make it the best school year! TMS PTA helps fund programs and activities that BSD can't, and with increasing budget cuts from the district, having a PTA respond to any unmet needs is critical! Click here to help us fund student and family events, school grants, and so much more! This year, we're already starting strong with our PTA-sponsored Ice Cream Social with help from tigers working together and donating!

Last year, in addition to our family events, we also approved some school grants and helped fund these programs:

• Orchestra Retreat

• Afterschool Algebra Club Support

• Microscope Maintenance for the Science Department

• Tiger Store Prizes

• Cascade Program Support

• 7th Grade Social Studies Podcast

• Supplies and Food for Culture Chefs Cooking Club

• Support for 6th Grade Camp

• Choir Support

• And more!

Want to double or triple the impact of your donation? Consider donating to our school and letting your employer know that they can match your gift!  

Please donate to Tillicum Middle School! Every dollar counts.
