TES Community Meeting - Tues, October 17
Today, Ms. Beth from Indiana Wild come to TES with many of her animals. Our students enjoyed getting to see, and in some cases touch, an opossum, snake, bird, lizard, baby alligator, and tarantula. Ms. Beth talked about how each of these animals demonstrate a letter of PRIDE (Personal Best, Respect, Integrity, Dependability, Enthusiasm). After the animal show, we celebrated our students and staff for showing PRIDE and earning PRIDE tickets hroughout the last month. Below are a few pictures of the animal show along with our student and staff PRIDE winners.

Classroom Lessons from Ms. Carter - Bullying
During this last part of September and into October, Ms. Carter, TES School Social Worker/Counselor, will be teaching a lesson on bullying to every class. Click here to check out the details of her lessons for each grade level.
Volunteers Needed - Reading Mentor Program
In partnership with the Encore Center, TES started a reading mentor program for second grade students. This year, we would like to expand this program to both 2nd and 3rd grade students. To do this, we need volunteers.
The program will be every Wednesday morning, 8:15-8:45. Anyone who is interested needs to have a current volunteer background check on file with TCSC or be willing to complete it (link below). No prior mentoring or work experience with children is necessary, only a desire to make a difference in the lives of a few students.
If interested, email Mr. Johnson (bjohnson@tcsc.k12.in.us) with your name and phone number, and he will contact you with further information.
