Congratulations to Roxanne & Marcia and all of our Treble Tones for their SUPERIOR ratings that they earned today at large group evaluation. We are so proud of you!!!
We had a little accident with some students and the Media Center door when they were transporting the laptop carts. They are heavy and quite difficult to drive, so please do not allow students to transport them without an adult helping them. Thanks!!
Please give copies of academic alerts to the administrator that evaluates you. Thank you!!
The Purple Party is Friday, May 4th
at the Vinings Club. They will be auctioning off classroom art projects once again this year along with Teacher Outings. The Art Projects will be entirely parent driven and if your class does not have a parent that will lead the effort for you, your class does not need to have a project. If your class does have someone to lead this project, please work with them to schedule time to create the project with your class. Thank you so much!! We want the Purple Party to be a HUGE SUCCESS this year!! Thank you so much for your support!!
Field Day has been scheduled for Tuesday, May 15th. We had to change it because of CRCT retesting for any 3rd & 5th
graders that do not pass the Reading portion of the test.

We have some volunteers from Rotary that would like to work with students weekly. I have one that could come during their lunch hour (between 11:30 and 1:30) each week on any day except Wednesday. I have another that is available on Tuesday mornings at 9:00 until 11:00. If you would like either of these time slots, please let me know. Thanks so much!!!
My Leadership & Learning meeting this week past Thursday was all focused around the Common Core. In one discussion I heard that some folks were confused about when we start teaching the Common Core. This year is our LOOK & LEARN year and the instruction begins next year. Yes, that is during the 2012-2013 school year!! I just wanted to be sure that we didn’t have any of that confusion here at Teasley!!
