Dear Parents and Guardians: Tussey Mountain Elementary School is a Title I School that receives federal funding to assist our students in meeting the demands of the challenging state academic standards.

As part of our program, we invite you to complete our Title I Survey to assist us as we plan our programs and activities for next school year. The information from this survey will also help us to improve student learning conditions and the school's overall environment. If you are interested in participating, please complete the survey by June 30, 2023. The link for the survey is below.
