Principal's Pen
Dear Soleng Tom Families,
WOW! What happened to the month of August! It feels like we just started the school year and here we are in the first week of September. It’s been a great start and we look forward to the coming months. Hoping everyone had a great 3 day weekend!
PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES:
Parent-Teacher conferences are coming up soon. Please remember to mark your calendars. Students will be dismissed at 11:40 am on September 20th, 21st, and 22nd. Please check with your child’s teacher regarding date and time for conference.
TITLE 1 PARENT MEETINGS:
Soleng Tom will be hosting 2 Title 1 Parent meetings for targeted Title 1 students. Meetings will be held from 2:30-3:30pm on Wednesday, September 20th and Thursday, September 21st in the STEM lab room. Targeted Title 1 Parents are welcome to attend either day.
SCHOOL COUNCIL ELECTIONS:
School Council Elections: Parents interested in serving on Soleng Tom’s School Council please complete the form provided in the front office and return by Thursday, September 15, 2022. Ballots will be prepared and distributed on Monday, September 19, 2022, and are due back on Wednesday, September 21, 2022. Elected members will be notified. Our 1st School Council meeting is scheduled for Monday, September 26, 2022.
PARENTLINK SYSTEM:
The ParentLink System is a communication tool that allows TUSD to deliver
important information to you quickly via phone and email messages. The main
purpose of this system is to notify parents of a child’s absence in a timely manner. The safety and security of our students is a priority. Any unexcused absences will generate a call from ParentLink to the absent child’s primary phone number. An unexcused absence is when there has been no communication with the school office regarding an absence. In these cases, the parent will be notified by the system beginning as early as 9:30am. The system will continue to attempt communication with parents into the early evening hours. It is important that any absences be called into the school office by 8:45am, even if the teacher has been notified, and that we have updated phone numbers for all students. Please remember to notify our school at 731-5400 or 731-5402 when any changes to the child’s contact information has occurred.
WEBSITE:
I’d like to remind all our parents about our school web page.
Please visit the site and see the wonderful things we have to offer. Our Family Handbook can now be accessed via the website for important information.
Warm regards,
Oscar Dotson
Principal
