About Me

My name is Travis Timperman. This is my 11th year of teaching, 2nd with Belle Creek. I am so excited for another amazing school year. The picture above is my family, my wife and my two dogs (Allie and Cosmo). I spend most of my free time walking my dogs, hanging out with my wife, and watching sports. My favorite sport is to watch is the NBA. I also work at a restaurant part time on the weekends. I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you this year.

Hello 
I'm ready for another fantastic week here at Belle Creek. I hope to see you all at Core Knowledge Night Thursday 11/7/24. 
Parents- If possible please provide your students with handheld calculators. These do not need to be fancy. It will make the learning process much quicker.
 
Students- Your homework this week is to make up all of the homework that is missing. I have dozens of students who have not been completing their google classroom assignments. Progress Reports will be coming out soon and any students with D's and F's will be getting notifications.
