Thank you for taking the time to read our Monthly Newsletter. We try and pack it with useful information.

Mrs. Reinhardt is out remarkable AVID Coordinator. She spearheads our AVID program at TCES and is passionate about ensuring our families are informed about AVID. The link below is to a presentation we shared with families at one of this year's COLT Connection. AIVD is a learning model which supports our scholar's preperation for college. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1dzAGV65R9juiwRfI7dpTQLi-KdPQD8o0fRY8banDx8Q/edit?usp=sharing

Attendance is a priority at Triple Crown. Scholars who miss school are more likely to struggle academically and socially. We encourage you to prioritize daily school attendance to ensure your child is successful in school! Our current attendance rate is 94.5%. We took a large dip in our attendance just prior to the holidays. Our goal for the school year is 96%. We encourage parents to take advantage of our Saturday STEAM days to make up an absence.Our next Saturday STEAM is November 16th.

TCE has gone digital! If you would like to check your child out early, excuse an absence, or report a tardy, simply scan the QR code and complete the form. If you are checking your child out from school early, please be prepared to show a photo ID. Thank you for your support and cooperation as work to improve our systems.

Our site has established behavior expectations for our scholars. It is the responsibility of the teachers and administrators to see that rules are carried out in a fair and reasonable manner. Every teacher, administrator and other designated employee will hold scholars to a strict account for their conduct on the way to and from school, in the classroom and other school buildings, on school grounds, and on the school bus. Rules of conduct also pertain to scholars who pick up siblings on campuses other than their own. Scholars must conform to school regulations, obey all directions, be diligent in study and respectful to teachers and others in authority, and refrain from the use of profane and vulgar language. In addition, any form of bullying, harrassment, or discrimminatory and/or racialized language will not be tolerated.

Scholars are expected to follow school and class expectations at all times and be diligent in their studies and be respectful to the teachers and others in authority.

Possible Consequences:

If a scholars is unable to adhere to established behavior expectations, consequences may be assigned. Possible consequences are:

1. Verbal warning.

2. Parent contact.

3. Parent contact and consequence.

4. Detention or other consequences.
