Hands Together Against Bullying and Self-Harm

This week Truman student leadership is sponsoring a spirit week called "Hands Together Against Bullying and Self-Harm"

Monday was the "Butterfly Project" where students drew butterflies on their hands to remind them that little events can make a big impact on those around us.

Tuesday was "Love is Louder than the Pressure to be Perfect."

Truman's Lindy Awards

Truman hosted its first ever Lindy Awards on April 11, 2013. Flyer Time classes submitted videos which they created to inspire the student population to do their best on the upcoming MAP tests. The videos were then watched and voted on by the entire student body. The guests arrived on the "green carpet" and enjoyed appearances from some popular stars. Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Cleopatra, Curious George and others were introduced by co-hosts Tina Fey and Jimmy Fallon.
