Timpson ISD Construction Progressing - Timpson Independent School District is proud to announce that our new Collegiate Center and Activity Center is nearing completion. The new structure is a prime example of the direction our district is headed. Timpson ISD is proud of the success we have had with our Bear Football Team, Bear Band, Ag Program and the strong academic foundation our students have had over the past century. The new facility ties in the old with the new which is exactly what the vision is for our district academically. Timpson High School, Timpson Middle School and Timpson Elementary will always be. However, a school district which is stagnant is falling behind, so Timpson ISD will remain progressive and intentionally try to stay in front of the educational curve and movement. Timpson ISD is committed to be progressive educationally, however we will always remain rich in tradition. The new structure is a visual reminder of this platform as it reflects a band of red brick, consistent with the red brick of our beloved Timpson High School building, but yet two lighter toned brick patterns used as an impression of a bright future ahead. The traditional red brick is a prime example of Timpson ISD being proud and respectful of our past but also blending the old with the new. Timpson ISD would like to thank our community for all of its support and encourage everyone to come up and visit our district. It has always been a great time to be a BEAR!!

Volleyball Clinic News -

Tuesday night, TLB Volleyball hosted Panola College Head Volleyball Coach Amber McCray and Assistant Coach Jane Hays in a 3 hour volleyball clinic. An astounding 37 players attended the clinic! TLB were put through a series of drills consisting of ball control, setting, hitting, defensive skills, and offensive skills. I'm extremely proud of the girls for their time, effort, and desire to get better.

TLB Volleyball will be playing in the Varsity and JV divisions of the East Texas Summer League starting May 30th. I'm proud that we have 19 girls signed up!!!! We will have 2-3 matches per night. I would like to thank the parents for their continued support of TLB Volleyball. I realize playing during the summer requires a lot of time, energy and sacrifice from all involved.
