- 23rd - Last Day of School!
5TH GRADE OUTDOOR ED
5th Grade was able to attend their much anticipated Outdoor Ed trip this week at Stone Canyon Edventures in Larkspur. They enjoyed 3 days and 2 nights at the facility which includes a ropes course, archery, and so many fun activities that we are sure these memories will last a lifetime.
What a fun way to wrap up their elementary years!
THANK YOU FOR LUNCH!
Thank you so much to our wonderful Kindergarten and 3rd Grade families for providing the delicious salads and desserts for the staff on Wednesday. We really appreciate the extra treat this week as we are all sprinting to the finish line.
DISMISSAL NUMBER CARDS
We know the yellow dismissal numbers in your cars are a beautiful accessory, however if you decide to move them from your visor for the summer, PLEASE do not throw them away. They should store nicely in your glovebox for use next year if you are returning to TTE. We ask that they are not thrown out so we are not making 300+ new copies next year. Never fear, your family will keep the same number if you are returning!
If you are not returning, please feel free to discard however you would like! :)
LOST AND FOUND
It is hard to believe how quickly the end of the year is approaching! Many items have been discarded on the playground and now live in our Cafeteria's Lost and Found. Please take a few minutes to remind your kiddos to find their lost items and bring them home. Next time you are near the school, please come in to check for items too!
All items will be donated to Clothes to Kids when school is done for the year.
LIBRARY UPDATE
Please see this important update from Mrs. Patterson, our Librarian, regarding lost books and end of year processes. Thank you for your help in locating any books that might have been found in the corner under the bed, or inside a toy bin. :)
Also - please see this awesome recap of the Library by the Numbers for this school year!
