Tiffin Elementary
Mid Week Note
Notes to Read
Since we were unable to send our Friday note out last week. We are sending out a "mid week" note.
Chess Club
TES Chess Club
Is your 2nd or 3rd grader interested in playing or learning to play Chess? The TES Chess Club will meet Thursdays after school until 4:30 in room C103, Mr. Villhauer’s classroom. We will begin February 6th. Students will learn the basics of Chess and have the opportunity to play against each other. If your child is interested please fill out the parent permission slip found in the Friday note. Questions can be emailed to Jeff Villhauer (second grade teacher) at jeffvillhauer@ccaschools.org.
We are also looking for adults that are interested in helping with the club from 3:20- 4:30 each Thursday. No Chess experience is necessary, but you do need to complete the district volunteer training. Please contact secretary Kali Stockman to confirm volunteer completion. There is a spot at the bottom of the parent permission slip to indicate if you would like to volunteer.
Here is a link with information on some of the benefits of playing Chess.
