February 2025

TES PTO is looking for members to help with activities and events that happen at TES. PTO helps pay for student field trips, students rewards and prizes, teacher luncheons, campus needs, and many other activities. Without PTO, we would not be able to have such a great family environment at TES. Please join PTO and help make TES even more amazing!

The PTO Meetings will be held on the first Tuesday of every month in the TES Library at 3:45!

TES would love to welcome our daughters and their father figures to enjoy a night of dancing together! The dance is for TES students only. Glow in the Dark and Neon is the theme for the decorations, not something the outfits have to match! Typically, our guests wear their "Sunday Best" to add a little fancy to the dance. Moms, please take all your special pictures prior to the dance to allow the daughters and father figures a night together. Entry fee, picture form and money for pictures will all be collected at the dance.

The Book Fair will be at TES starting on February 24th through February 27th in our library. Students will take a quick tour of all of the goodies offered at the Book Fair on Monday. After Monday, teachers will offer various times for students to shop at the Book Fair. We will have the Book Fair open on Tuesday, February 25th and Thursday, February 27th from 4:00 - 6:00 PM to allow parents to join in the fun!

If you are unable to come join us in person, you can shop the online store from February 21st - March 6th! Online Digital Store

Here are the digital Book Fair Flyers in English and Spanish to see some of the available book options!

The best way to purchase things at the Book Fair is with an eWallet. An eWallet is similar to the online payment apps (i.e. Paypal, Venmo, etc.), but is strictly through Scholastic. You create an account for your student to spend money at the fair and minimize the risk of cash being misplaced. The eWallet system will open on January 31st. How E-Wallet works

Here is the link to the TISD District Calendar for the 2024 - 2025 school year.

This year we will continue allowing parents to eat lunch with their students by appointment. To provide an opportunity for our students to get settled into a routine, the first availability for lunch appointments will be on August 26th. Here is the link to schedule lunch appointments! The link for appointments is available on our website and Facebook page as well.

There are only two slots available to each day since space is limited. If there are no availabilities for your child's grade level on that day, you will have to choose a different day to come visit. Due to the set up of the program, the appointment times don't match up perfectly with the actual lunch time schedule.

To ensure all of our students get home to the proper location safely, consistency is KEY! It's better for our students and staff if the transportation remains constant throughout the school year. Changing the transportation of the students often creates confusion and mistakes.

If you need to change your child's transportation, you will need to send an email to testransportation@teagueisd.org OR a handwritten letter with your student to school. All transportation changes are cut off promptly at 2:45 to ensure we communicate the change properly.

TES is offering multiple ways to communicate with you about the upcoming events happening at our school! We love to post updates and pictures of our students on our school Facebook page and send out reminders via text and email! If you ever have any questions, feel free to call the front office.

If you have Facebook, please go follow our page - Teague Elementary School TISD. Always be sure that your contact information is up to date in Skyward. Our communication system will pull your numbers and emails directly from Skyward. If you aren't recieving our text messages, text 67587 to opt in!

Regular attendance to school is critical to ensure the success of your student! School hours are from 7:30 AM - 3:30 PM. Anyone arriving to school after 7:40 AM will report to the front office for a tardy pass. The official attendance time for TISD is 9:00 AM. If your student arrives after 9:00 AM, they will be counted absent for that day.

Communication with TES is critical! Doctor's notes and parent excuse notes need to be provided to the front office upon your child's return to school. Each student is only allowed 3 parent excuse notes per semester. After those 3, the absences will be recorded as unexcused.

This year, we are going to be offering some rewards to our students with regular attendance!

At the end of semester, every student that has no more than 2 attendance changes (i.e. tardy, absent or left early) will get a special reward!

Wish your child a Happy Birthday!!! Use the Google Form below to reserve the TES Birthday Sign for your Child's Birthday. The cost for the Birthday Sign either in the bus lane or the car line is $30. The sign will be displayed by 7:15 am (or before) on the reservation date and will remain up until car dismissal is complete. Payment is due prior to the sign being displayed. The money can be turned into the TES office by cash or check. If you prefer Venmo, our username is @TeagueElementarySchool.
