Don't forget to sign up for a conference with your child's teacher
Important Dates and Information
Our annual Trunk or Treat Event was a success. Thanks to our PTA for organizing and for all of our families that volunteered to decorate a trunk. We had over 70 vehicles in our "trunk" event!
Our parents also helped to organize Tiogue's first Halloween SpookTacular Event. THANK YOU!
Hundreds of children and family members came to the party after the Trunk or Treat.
(see some pictures below)
Clarification about our December Campfire and Books Title One Event:
We are a Full Title One School, so that means that all families may participate in all Title One events regardless of whether or not (your) student/child qualify for Title One Reading and/or Mathematics services. Basically, all Title One Events are Free of charge and are open for all to attend.
Our Campfire and Books event, scheduled for December 6th, is going to be held indoors. No real campfires will be lit outside. We are setting up indoor "faux" campfires around the building. You will have a chance to sit and relax while reading a book with your kid(s).
You may bring a blanket, pillow, lawn chair, or whatever suits you to sit around the indoor campfire.
A flyer regarding the event was sent home last week on bright, colorful paper.
Please fill out the bottom portion of the paper and return it to the school, so we can get an accurate count of those interested in attending.

*Updated BCI INFORMATION*
IF you filled out a BCI form on or around our Open House date, all information is now in our system. Our local Police Dept. and Central Office clerks worked hard to get 1000s of BCIs into the system. If you are signed up to eat lunch with your student on November 16th, we will let you know if we do not have a BCI on file. You do not need to contact the front office to check. Mrs. Crowley will contact you if we did not get a BCI back for you.
Our Mission and Motto:
At Tiogue School, we believe that students can achieve their personal best and become responsible and productive citizens by embracing all learning opportunities each day.
"Everybody is somebody at Tiogue"
Hours: 8:40am - 3:10pm
Students may come to school when supervisory coverage begins at 8:20am
Glad the event happened before the storm!
