Welcome to TCGIS

Liebe Freunde!

​Herzlich Willkommen! Welcome, especially those new to or considering this wonderful community committed to the Innovative Education of the Whole Child through German Immersion. 
​

Our school values of Curiosity, Kindness, Challenge and Support, Community, and Intercultural Engagement are more than words; they are lived, vital aspects of how we interact with one another. We are uniquely situated at TCGIS to explore the ways we and other parts of the world have been impacted by the challenges of the past few years and to expand our vocabulary in two languages to reflect our deepened empathy and desire to see others, hear others, and think and act with an open mind across cultures.

It is our honor to be here at TCGIS. We look forward to working with and supporting all of you in our creative and important work together.
​

Wir sind TCGIS! / We are TCGIS!
