- New ELL and Learning Support offices and meeting areas
- Expansion of the front field, which will involve levelling the ground as well as new grass
- New tiles on the Kindergarten playground area
- Sidewalk repair
- New safety mats for the columns in the MPR
- Anti-slip mats on all walkways which connect the main building to the MPR wing
- Night-time spotlights for the Kindergarten playground, artificial soccer turf and red recreational area between the main office and MPR.

- Painting of the second floor hallways and classrooms
In addition to renovations, the school will also be purchasing 36 new laptops, 18 new iMacs, 12 new iPads and 10 new Chromebooks. Stay tuned for updates and photos of the renovations on the TIS blog and Facebook page throughout the summer.
