You can access your child's report card on Power School. Directions are on this link. If you have any questions, please contact your child's teacher.

Thank you to all of the parents that spoiled the TES Staff with soup, salads, sandwich fixings, snacks, drinks and desserts! Every bite was appreciated!

Thank you for your participation in Parent Teacher Conferences this past week. It is such a valuable time for our teachers and students!

The Halloween Parade begins at 1:30 on Thursday, October 31st. We invite all parents and guests to gather on Colorado Ave for the parade and to cheer our Miner Bees on during the parade. We are asking that no adults, except for TES staff join the parade, so we can keep a closer eye on our students and give them the opportunity to be center of attention!

Monday is the last day to bring in your Disney Pumpkin to be eligible for voting. Our voting will begin at 9:00 a.m.

Parents and guests can view the pumpkins on Tuesday, October 29th in the TES cafeteria. You can also bring your pumkins home . They can also stay until October 31st. Any pumpkins that are still on the steps after school will be disposed of.

Have a wonderful weekend!
