Week Ahead: Monday- Full Day; Tuesday- Full Day; Wednesday- Full Day; Thursday- Full Day; Friday- Full Day

1. Music Student Teacher- Please join us in welcoming our new music student teacher, Cody Cline. Mr. Cline will be working with Ms. McKean for the next several weeks.  Click Here to read Mr. Cline’s introduction letter.  

2. Valentine’s Day- Believe it or not, February is coming! In observance of Valentine’s Day this year, we welcome students bringing in Valentine’s Day cards to hand out to all of their classmates. This is not mandatory. Classroom teachers will have a designated time at the end of the day for exchanging and opening Valentines. Guidance from our Wellness Policy does not support traditional parties that include food and snacks.  As a reminder, the characteristic trait we focus on during the month of February is FRIENDSHIP.  Although we don’t expect everyone to be friends, we do expect that everyone will be kind to one another.

3. Reminder- There will be a half day of school on Friday, February 7th for Staff Professional Development. No lunch is served on half days.

4. School Zone Safety- Arrival and dismissal are busy here at TES. Here are just a few reminders to keep everyone safe:

• The speed limit during arrival and dismissal is 20 mph.

• Cars should not be passing through the TES parking lots during arrival and dismissal times and should NEVER be passing buses or vans that are loading or unloading.

• Cars departing the drop off/pick up zone need to yield to oncoming traffic on South Road.
