Tiger Talk With Joanne Robblee

Parent Information Session

Way back on the first day of school, there was a brief welcome coffee for parents right after students were dropped off in their classrooms.  This was a very brief session and I realize that parents still have a lot of questions about Teasley.  Even sending home a weekly newsletter does not really provide you with all the details of how things are done at the school.  On Saturday, September 27th, there will be a parent information session from 9:00-11:00 in the school media center.  This workshop is designed to share information about school procedures, testing, schedules, program, and our PTA.  Ellen Murphy, our media specialist, Kate Strother, our school counselor, will join me as we discuss different aspects of the school and answer questions you may have.  Babysitting will be provided along with snacks, coffee, and juice.  Hope to see you there. 

COMMUNITY SUPPORT FOR TEASLEY

Since the beginning of the school year, I have been repeatedly amazed by the wonderful support that parents and the community give to Teasley.  Every day there are volunteers at the school helping out in classrooms, the media center, or working on an important fundraiser.  There are businesses in the Teasley community like the Rotary Club of Vinings, Costco, Georgia Power, Jet's Pizza, and Starbucks that provide funding for events and projects or food for the staff, students, and parents.  I truly believe that a school's success is linked directly to parent and community involvement. Most recently the successful passage of the SPLOST III referendum will make a huge difference in our school over the next five years.   I just wanted to take a moment to thank all the different folks who are committed to keeping Teasley "the best little school in Georgia."
