Terrapin Tidbits
SY20 TCES Family Issue #6: 10.7.19
Dear Families,
Changing leaves, a hint of cooler temperatures, and all things pumpkin spice are clues that October days are here. At Town Creek Elementary, classroom routines and procedures have been established and evidence of learning is all around our school.
Although September, Attendance Awareness Month, has come to a close, we will keep a yearlong focus on the importance of attending school regularly. We would like to remind families that lawful absences may be reported electronically using the button below or the link on our website [see blue button in top, right corner].
Kind regards,
Lindsay Brenfleck
