Tuckaway-West

Tuckaway-West Opening in 1971, Tuckaway-West was the very first Tuckaway school. Opening in 1971, Tuckaway West was the very first Tuckaway school.

This location proudly maintains a close-knit family feel. Parents frequently comment on how many hugs their children receive. West's separate classrooms provide close attention for younger children and the large school-age classroom features a sunny back porch area for woodworking, painting, or other crafts. The school's small group sizes allow its caring staff to know every child's unique persona

lity. Outside, West offers acres of playground space. In fact, the playground is so big that everyone at the school can go outside at the same time and still have plenty of room, so children can run and play freely under the caring supervision of staff. Tuckaway West also features two swimming pools: a wading pool for budding swimmers, and a larger pool suitable for swimming lessons and play. Tuckaway West can be easy to miss, because it is "tucked away" in the West End (but still convenient to I-64).

Today, our Eagles had a blast playing outside and creating their own games together! They had an amazing time exploring new ideas, using their imaginations, and finding creative ways to communicate and cooperate with one another. It was wonderful to watch their teamwork, problem-solving skills, and friendships grow through play. We love seeing our Eagles learn, lead, and have fun together!

What a way to end our first week of summer! Swim tests and some fun in the pool.

Using magnetic tiles, math link blocks and tiny block puzzle pieces, our children explored, designed, built, and created their own unique ideas. From colorful structures to imaginative patterns, every creation showcased their growing critical thinking, fine motor skills, and creativity.

Hands-on learning like this encourages children to experiment, collaborate, and discover new possibilities through play. We loved seeing their ideas come to life and watching their confidence grow with every design!

Yesterday was filled with laughter, fun, and memories that will last a lifetime. We celebrated the end of another wonderful school year, from our preschoolers all the way through our 5th graders.

From outdoor fun and games to special snacks shared with friends, yesterday was the perfect way to wrap up an amazing year. The smiles, laughter, and excitement made it a day to remember!

We are so thankful for the memories we’ve made with those moving on to new adventures, and we’re excited to continue making even more memories with those joining us for summer camp.

From the last day of preschool to the last day of 5th grade, it has been an incredible year of learning, growing, and friendship. Yesterday simply the best! Here’s to a summer full of fun, sunshine, and new adventures! ☀️❤️🎉
