September

Dear Families,

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your support. Our open house was a fantastic kickoff, filled with joy as we visited classrooms, engaged with community partners, and enjoyed delicious burgers cooked by our assistant superintendent, Kamern Taravati.

There is amazing learning happening in our classrooms, our elective classes are in full swing and we continue to celebrate the end of the week with Friday Community Time. This special time allows us to celebrate birthdays and recognize our students for demonstrating our PBIS expectations (Power Paw). Mr. Waugaman introduces a new game for recess each week, along with clear expectations for playground behavior. We always end each lesson with a competition between the students and staff. Lots of fun and lots of energy!

If you haven't had the chance to see Friday Community Time in action, we invite you to join us at 9:00 AM on Fridays. Your presence would enhance our school community.

Thank you for being a vital part of Tully GATE Magnet.

Warm regards,

Principal Wilken

This year Tully is a grant recipient from the Blue Watermelon Project. As part of this, Tully will have 5 recipes and ingredients delivered throughout the school year. For this month’s recipe, Corn Chowder, we prepared it with the 2nd/3rd and 1st grade elective class. Students were able to learn about and touch the ingredients, safely assist in food preparation, and taste what we made. Most of the students enjoyed the soup - out of 5 stars most gave it 5 stars with one student giving it 1,000 stars and another student infiniti! The soup contained potatoes, corn, celery, and herbs. Next month the recipe will be made with the featured ingredient, fava beans. Click on the blue water melon logo for more information!

We are excited to announce that Tully will once again participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program! We can't wait and see the amazing foods our students will try this year!
