Title I @ Teasley

Welcome back to another school year Teasley families!

A new school year always brings new learning opportunities, in school and at home. At Teasley, we will continue with our commitment to Elevate the Excellence so our students continue to grow academically, socially, and emotionally. We ask all our families to join us in this effort by supporting their students at home - click here to learn how.

This newsletter provides Title I information, such as invites to events, resources for parents to help students at home, and more. Please take a few minutes to check it out.

The Free/Reduced lunch application needs to be completed every year. The application is one per family as you can add all your students and children not yet attending school. You may complete the application online OR request a paper copy sent to you with your student. Email yudy.soro@cherokeek12.net if you need a paper application or visit the school's front office.
