The last few months have been filled with wonderful activities for the Teasley family. Our sale of Sally Foster products is over and families are picking up their orders. We had fantastic weather for our Teasley Trot, Market Street, Health Fair, and Fun Fair on Sunday October 19th. Everyone seemed to have a grand time. Both of these fundraisers were successful due to your ongoing support.
Just last Thursday, October 23rd, the Treble Tones and First Grade put on a magnificent program for Veterans' Day. We had almost thirty veterans from all the different military branches who were recognized. It was a very special and proud evening for all who attended.
Coming up on November 6th are two Prospective Parent Coffees (8:00 AM and 9:30 AM) in the media center. This is a great opportunity for parents, who reside within the Teasley school zone, to find out more about the school and also to tour the school. Please tell any neighbors with pre-school children to take advantage of the chance to find out more about our school.
We will also be starting up our Thanksgiving Food Drive soon. Students donate different food items and then food baskets are given out to some of our families in need. This is wonderful way for students to help take care of others.
Just as the Food Drive wraps up, the Angel Tree is put up in the front hallway. This is a tree decorated with angels that ask for Teasley families to purchase games, toys, gift cards, and clothing for some of our families. It is a powerful way to teach your child about the real meaning of the holidays. Please make sure you drop by the school and select an angel or two from the tree. Remember to sign up on the clipboard off to the side, which angel you are taking.
Everyone needs to mark their calendar for Saturday, December 13th. This is our Holiday Breakfast and Craft Fair. Students and families get to enjoy a yummy breakfast and also make some crafts to give as gifts. There is also a Holiday shop for students to buy gifts for their families.
As you can see the months have been filled with wonderful ways to become involved in the school. I am so grateful for the many volunteers who have helped coordinate and support these different programs. I hope each one of you will participate in one of these special activities. Each one of you can truly make a difference by volunteering.
