DISMISSAL For dismissal time, If you can, please allow your child to bring his or her own book, or even a word-search or coloring book during this time each day.
Please note that for K-3 dismissal, the time for pick-up is 2.06 to 2.30. After 2.30, K-2 children are considered late pick-ups, unless they are waiting for older siblings to be released from their classes.
UNIFORM! Please make sure that you follow the TMSA handbook regarding colors of shoes (no boots!) and the wearing of belts. Your child may receive a note if he or she is not in compliance with the dress code. Please encourage your child to tuck-in his or her shirt as they get out of the car in the morning, and we will continue to remind all students throughout the day.
Students should be wearing school shirts or sweaters with the TMSA logo clearly visible.
FAMILY CONTRACTS should be signed and returned by August 31st. I have received most of them!
MATERIALS FEE of $20 is due by September 4th.
TUTORING AND CLUBS begin next week. Please note that tutoring is by invitation only. Therefore, if I have identified that your child is in need of tutoring, I will contact you with a permission form.
Please check your child's binder today for club sign-up!
TARDIES TMSA has a 'zero tolerance' for students being late to school. Your child will be marked tardy if he or she arrives at school at 8.55 or later.
HOMEWORK The homework packet has been issued today.It is in your child's binder. It is due each FRIDAY. You can decide how to pace it, but please note that reading should be taking place every day.

SPELLING TEST each week is Friday, unless Friday is a holiday/teacher work day....in which case it will be Thursday!
