Welcome to Turner/Bartels K-8 - Home of the Bengal Tigers!
View our our welcome back letter from Mr. Buggs > Welcome Back to 2026-27!
At TBK8, our mission is inspiring excellence, leadership, life-long learning, and global citizenship in our students. We believe that globally minded learners are respectful, responsible, and engaged.
It is truly an honor to serve alongside such an exceptional faculty and staff, A+ students, dedicated volunteers, supportive business partners, and one of the largest and most active PTSAs—not just in Florida, but across the country.
Enjoy the rest of the summer, stay engaged in summer reading, and we look forward to welcoming students back to campus on August 10!
R. LaMarr Buggs, Principal
