For generations, the Turner Elementary Middle School Tigers roared with pride, their spirit echoing through the halls and across the playing fields. The beloved Tiger mascot, a symbol of strength, courage, and unity, stood tall at every school event, a furry embodiment of our collective identity. But somewhere along the way, our Tiger faded. Not in spirit, but in presence.

Budget cuts, shifting priorities, and the simple passage of time led to the gradual retirement of our magnificent mascot costume. The enthusiastic high-fives became a memory. The powerful roar that once ignited school spirit fell silent.

The absence of our Tiger leaves a void. It’s more than just a costume; it's a unifying force. It fosters a sense of belonging, encourages participation, and creates lasting memories. Imagine the excitement of our younger students seeing the energetic Tiger cheering them on during their first field day. Picture the boost in morale for our middle school athletes knowing their mascot is there, roaring their support. Envision the smiles on the faces of our teachers and staff as the Tiger brings a renewed sense of joy and camaraderie to school events.

But the embers of the Tiger spirit still glow brightly within our community. We know the love for Turner Elementary Middle School runs deep. We believe that together, we can reignite that roar and bring our beloved Tiger back to life!

This fundraiser, "Bring back the Roar," is our chance to make that dream a reality. Every donation, no matter the size, will directly contribute to:
