Teacher / Staff Appreciation Week
Please consider finding a way to reach out to them this week to let them know you see them and appreciate their efforts.
Our Tecumseh Local Staff is one in a million!
Reminders
- Students need to wear a mask everyday. These need to be supplied by parents. Make sure students have extras in their bag.
- Student Chromebooks need to come to school each day. They need to be charged, and students need to have the charging cord with them each day.
- Please make sure your child is only using their device for school related tasks. And keeping it away from younger siblings and animals to help it from being damaged.
Update on State Testing
It is always helpful to have your child here on time, well rested and comfortable on testing days.

Positive Referrals
When students receive a positive referral their photo is taken, the receive a bracelet, candy or a pencil. Additionally, students receiving positive referrals are honored as we hang their photo in the hallway of each student receiving a positive office referral and these students are also honored on our morning announcements which can be viewed on our Youtube channel, and their pictures scroll on the TV in the office. It is really exciting for our students.
- Check out the LINK here to watch the slideshow.
We are up to 181 Positive Referrals!! WAY TO GO KIDS!!!! You are the good example for others! Keep it up the great work.
Our Culture Playbook
Tecumseh Education Connection
The Education Connection is a telephone number that you can call 24-hours a day to listen to your child’s homework assignments, report your child’s absence, hear the lunch menu, find out the scores of the big game, hear about school closings and leave a private message for a staff member.
You will still need to call your child in if they will not be attending school, or doing their online work for the day. We will still need to document attendance. We are marking students with green, yellow and red attendance.
- Calling your child in sick.
- Leave a voicemail with questions.

Arrival and Dismissal at NCES
Arrival - Please drop off all students at the front door by 8:30 to make a shuttle bus. Students are not able to enter the building prior to 8:30. If your child is having breakfast they can also enter at this time. If your child is NOT eating breakfast at school they can arrive at 8:55.
Dismissal - All students will be picked up using the curb lane. This is a safety concern for our students. It is also another way to continue social distancing.
Thank you for your cooperation. Our students safety is our highest concern.
