Tierrasanta Elementary Anuncios!

Dear Tierrasanta Elementary Families,

Welcome to week 12 of the school year! ArtBox order forms have been emailed out. Look for one with your child's individual artwork! A portion of the proceeds from every purchase will be donated back to the school and they make great gifts. The products are great quality and you can look at several samples in the office if you would like! Thank you!

The Federal Impact Aid Survey is now available to fill out online. SDUSD receives approximately $10 million annually from the completion of these forms. If you have not done so already, please log in to your PowerSchool Parent Portal account and complete the survey. It only takes one minute!

• Login at https://powerschool.sandi.net/
• Select Forms from the left-hand navigation menu, then select 2024-25 Impact Aid Survey.
• Follow the prompts and submit the form. Please be sure a confirmation appears before logging off.

School Supplies:

You are not required to purchase any supplies for school. Many parents ask however, if there is anything they can purchase for their child in class or for the classroom. Our teachers have compiled grade level lists of the items they recommend your child bring to school. You can find the lists here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oexoO8yFaev2_VR_p7BkLyCx2RXjIclx/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=113602026430230137633&rtpof=true&sd=true

School Lunch is free for all students. Students are also welcome to bring their own lunches from home if preferred. Please know that substitutions (although rare) can occur and that occasionally the cafeteria will run out of certain items/entrees. If your child is picky we recommend you always send a snack or have your child bring their own lunch.

Lunch Menus can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JOM20y_blJp0_B7n6dCw3OgHZvUrnWF4/view

Student Computers

• All incoming 3rd-5th grade students should have their devices at home with them over the summer (even exiting 5th graders) as devices now follow the student (to whatever district school they attend).

• Incoming K-2nd grade students will receive their computers once school starts (this process may take several weeks so please be patient)

• The Instructional Technology Department created the following resources for parents (links below)

• Please view this information on laptop care and digital citizenship with your children

• If your child is NOT returning to a school in our district please return their computers and chargers to the front office.

English | Spanish | Swahili | Arabic | Tagalog | Vietnamese
