A Message from the Principal

Henry O. Tanner is a community of stakeholders engaging students in meaningful learning experiences to produce college and career ready scholars.    

Tanner school offers 21st Century learning through individualized learning tracks, 1:1 technology integration and digital curriculum implementation. We cultivate and nurture students’ talents and interest through fine and performing arts opportunities and year-round sports programming.   Most recently, Tanner is a recipient of The Chance The Rapper and Social Works, Computer Science Grant and implements computer science in head start through eighth grades. In addition to small group instruction and common core based instruction, Tanner implements social emotional learning in all classrooms. We support student learning through restorative practices, peace circles, peer jury, and talking circles. Students learn emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, self- advocacy, goal setting, and relationship building through a comprehensive social emotional culture supported by many community partnerships.
