Thank you to all of our veterans in the community for your military service in defending our Nation. We appreciate and honor you!

ART TO REMEMBER Fundraiser

  • LAST CHANCE TO ORDER: ART PRODUCT ORDERS DUE BY MONDAY NOVEMBER 14th
  • Are you interested in buying a product with your child’s custom art on it? All TES PreK-2nd grade students brought “ART TO REMEMBER” forms. You can order products such as magnets, mugs, ornaments, and more and have them shipped directly to you or a loved one’s home before the winter holidays. The profits earned are used to purchase art supplies for your student during art class. Please consider supporting us with this important annual fund raiser that helps us purchase more than 50% of our art supplies. We only have 13% parent participation so far; let’s increase that number before it is too late. Online orders are due by Monday 11.14.22. No late orders are accepted. If you cannot find the form that was sent home, go to https://arttoremember.com/ > art gallery > No order code?/search > Telluride School K-3 Telluride CO > your info to find your child’s creation (made in art class) already loaded on the site. If you still have questions, contact the customer service at 800-895-8777 or email info@arttoremember.com.
