TES Family Updates
Halloween Parade: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS
- Parade begins at TES at 12:20 p.m. on October 31st. We would like parents and guests to meet us on Colorado to watch the parade along the street so our students can be the center of the event. This also helps us keep eyes on all of our students throughout the parade. Only TES students and staff will be in our parade line. Thank you!
- Students should not be removed from the parade route. If you need to pick your child up early, please come into the school and see Erika after the parade.
- Students will be doing the Thriller dance on the playground following the parade. If parents want to watch, please watch around the outside perimeter of the playground. We will be recording it if you miss it or do not have a clear view of your child.
Report cards will be available for viewing on Power School on Friday, October 26th. Directions will be sent out to all parents at that time.
Storybook Pumpkins can be dropped off through Wednesday, October 25th. You are invited to come and view the pumpkins after school on Thursday, October 26th in the cafeteria.
Enjoy the great weather this weekend!
Best regards,
Kelly Treinen
