SY21 TCES Family Issue #16
December 7, 2020
Greetings TCES Families,
You are doing a great job. Our staff and I appreciate all you do to team with us for our students. Thank you for joining us in our efforts to keep our students learning, connected to their teachers and peers through Google Meet, and motivated to complete Schoology assignments. Our TCES staff and I are ready to help in any way you need - just ask!
This Friday marks the Quarter 2 Interim period. We will continue our learning over the next two weeks leading up to Winter Break while having some fun with our spirit days and our Ho-Ho-Home Materials Pick-Up. Join us!
Warm regards,
Lindsay Brenfleck
