SCHOOL RESUMES ~ TUESDAY, APRIL 2.
*~ NOTES FROM THE OFFICE ~*
FINAL FORMS UPDATE & REMINDER:
TSD will prompt parents in the first week of August to begin updating their child's school forms for the 2024-25 school year. We know sometimes parents begin doing this early, but it's important to wait for the prompt from the district, as some forms will be changing for next school year. The updates will be made in July, after all of the summer programs are completed. Thank you.
Afternoon Early Pick-ups:
Parents picking up students after 2pm please park in the upper lot. Buses are coming in at this time and cars can not be in the lower lot. Thank you.
Student Fees:
Reports have been sent home with student's current fees. Students that have outstanding fees will not be permitted to participate in extra curricular activities. It is extremely important that these fees are paid and brought current. Payment plans are available. Please contact the school office, 513.273.3305 to make arrangements. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Lunch Accounts:
Several students have lunch balances that are in the negative. Once accounts reach a certain threshold they are rolled into student's school fees. Please use Talawanda EZ Pay to check on your student's account. You can use Talawanda EZ Pay, send a check or cash to the school office to take care of your student's balance.
Drink Reminder
Students may only have water as a drink in the classroom. If they bring other drinks from home, they must finish them in the cafeteria before heading to class (on time).
Student Pick-up/Early Dismissal
Parents please know that when you need to pick-up your student up early from school we will check an ID, even if we know you. Please understand this is for the safety of the children. Always remember to bring your ID inside to show us.
Tuesday/Thursday Help Sessions
Teachers will be assigning after school help sessions on Tuesday and/or Thursday for any student missing assignments. Please check with your student to be sure they have turned in all of their work! If they haven't, the required help session will be an excellent time for them to get it finished.
COOKIE DOUGH PICK UP!
Cookie dough pick up will be April 3rd or April 4th! Pick up time will be from 3pm - 7pm. Once the specific date is determined an all call and an email will be sent home to families. Please be on the look out for more information!

The campaign focuses on educating parents and guardians about the dangers and issues of social media. In the coming six weeks, Special Edition Know! Tips will be released on topics related to sextortion, depression, anxiety and self-esteem, personal safety, addiction to social media, and Ohio's Social Media Parental Notification Act. These tips will be written by teens, for caring adults everywhere.
