News from the PTA.....
*Just a reminder that change request forms for the school directory are due Friday, September 14th. Please submit the form ONLY if there are changes to be made from last year. Any change requests submitted after this date will not be included in the directory. Thank you!
*Don’t forget to donate to the PTA Annual Fund! Rather than asking our children to sell products throughout the year, the PTA asks that each family makes a donation to the fund. Any amount helps! The money goes towards funding programs like science and supplies, computer equipment, technology, visiting authors/musicians, leadership programs, and much much more! You can donate online at www.trilliumcreekpta.org or by filling out the pink sheet in your welcome packet. Donate today!

This year we would like to offer parking for parents at Willamette Christian Church. We ordered 3 new 78 passenger buses with Trip Tracker from First Student to serve Trillium on September 13th from 5:30pm to 7:30pm.
Buses will run every 15 minutes between 5:30pm and 7:30pm from Willamette Christian Church to Trillium Creek. Willamette Christian Church has two levels to the parking lot. Pick up location will be on the lower level closest to the road (Northeast corner). PLEASE consider using this shuttle service in order to avoid congestion and to help our community. Thank you!

First Grade Hearing Screenings
On Thursday September 13, 2018 the West Linn-Wilsonville SD Speech Pathology Team will be conducting hearing screenings on all first graders at Trillium Creek Primary.
If you do not want to have your first graders hearing screened please send a note to your classroom teacher on the day of the screening requesting to opt your child out of the hearing screening. Students who do not pass the hearing screening will be re-screened at a later date by the building Speech and Language Pathologist.
You will be notified by mail or phone ONLY if your child’s results were not within the normal range after the re-screening.
Reminders......
*Umbrella's are allowed to use to and from school but not allowed out on the playground during the day.
*Students are allowed in the building at 7:40 AM. We DO NOT have supervision for them before that time.
*All visitors/volunteers must enter through the front doors and sign in at the office into our Help Counter system.

Art Literacy is Coming Soon
Art Literacy is getting a new look! We are working hard to reshape our Art Literacy curriculum based on teacher, student and parent feedback to ensure that we are providing the best quality program possible for our students. That will include providing separate grade level appropriate presentations for each age group directly tied to aspects of our campus curriculum and culture. This year’s “All School Activity” will focus on the art of children’s book author Mo Willems! We are excited to help our students create stories and illustrations in the style of Willems during the month of October.
BUT…we can’t do it alone! In order to ensure the consistency of the curriculum across grade level classrooms and reduce the burden on our teachers, we will be asking for several grade level representatives to serve as “Lead Volunteers” throughout the year. Please look for opportunities coming through Help Counter in the coming weeks. The success of our program depends on the continued strong support of parent volunteers.
Counselor Connection
I’m Ms. Ramos and I’m the new school counselor. I work closely with staff, families, and all students to support students in academic, social, and emotional learning. I have been into all classrooms at TCPS to introduce myself to students and to clarify the role of the school counselor. I support students in solving problems regarding family transitions, social skills, emotional regulation and more through classroom lessons, small groups, and individual check ins. Also, I help connect families with resources for food, clothing, school supplies and more. If you are in need of resources and/or you would like to contact me here is my information: by email to: ramosc@wlwv.k12.or.us and by phone: 503-673-7957.
