Parents and Students,
Early Dismissal this week: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, all students will be released at 12:40pm so that students and teachers can host student-led conferences. If you haven’t signed up for a conference with your child’s teacher, please contact them for a date and time. This is an opportunity for your child to share their own personal growth with their goals. Thank you for our wonderful clean-up crew that came out Sunday, Feb. 22nd to prepare our campus for the upcoming Run for the Heights Event. As always, we appreciate the pride our community takes in our school. Thank you! We hope to see you at our Run for the Heights Event. I have attached the Alamo Toyota Nomination Form and ask that you take time to nominate our awesome teachers. They are dedicated and go above and beyond for your children. I am proud to be their principal and enjoy seeing their passion and dedication every day. Thank you for taking the time to consider submitting a THE Teacher. Johnson High School will be hosting a cheer clinic if your family is interested, I have attached the flyer. This clinic; however, falls on the same date as our Run for the Heights. We would love for you to support our campus and the wellness opportunities attached.

Hey Tigers, with Run For The Heights just around the corner it’s time to think about tidying up our campus. On Sunday, February 22, we will be meeting at Tuscany Heights to pick up litter around the school. We will meet from 1pm-3pm. Volunteers are needed to help with this important task. We request that parents plan to stay and volunteer with their children, as we cannot properly supervise them while they walk all around picking up. Please plan to wear gloves and bring water. There will be a contest for the most unique item found! RFTH Race Registration On-line registration is open. On-site registrationand packet pick-upwill be available as follows: iRun 20079 Stone Oak Parkway (210)494-RUNZ Tuscany Heights Elementary School 25001 Wilderness Oak (210)407-8200 If registering after Tuesday, 2/24/15, please pick up packet at Tuscany Heights Elementary on Friday, 2/27/15. Clarification-
Parents, Students will only be asked to enter their student codes at breakfast and IF they go back for a second item during lunch. It will not be required for lunch time for single trays (again, only if students go back to get something extra). I just realized this today and wanted to communicate ASAP. The codes are the student ID numbers, and many students already know this code in order to access Istation and/or other computer programs. They use it to log on to the computer. Thank you for helping support our students through this change! Tara Bailey Parents and Students,
Don’t forget no school on Monday, Feb. 16th. This will be a professional development and work day for NEISD Staff. We will be using our time to review student data and plan for upcoming instruction! Please look closely to the calendar, because we have added benchmark testing dates in red. WE will keep the campus closed until about 10:40a.m.,when the first lunches start. If we have WatchDOGS signed up to volunteer, they will be allowed to work in other grade levels until after testing. We do not “close” the campus in an attempt to cause inconvenience, but in order to give our students a quiet environment in which to test. This coming week, our students will be using a keypad when they come through the cafeteria line. They will be required to enter their lunch codes. This will slow our lines down somewhat and we appreciate your patience. Ask your child if they know their lunch code. If they do not have it memorized, now would be a great time to start practicing. THE Cafeteria Ladies plan to work alongside of our students until this is an efficient and effective process. In keeping the cafeteria update, I would like to share that we have started talking more about recycling and our recyclable bags went from 2-3 bags a day to 14-16 bags a day. Thank you to our students for being conscious about the world in which we live. I am very proud of them! On a safety note, thank you for working hard to keep our students and staff safe. A few reminders:

I am sending a message to follow up on my earlier message regarding Valentine's Day and to clarify my morning announcement communication. I feel certain that we have confusion. Since Valentine's Day has not been selected as a party day for us this year, we are not allowed to have food for our students to eat in celebration. If you have purchased cards that have candy attached, please know that these cards will be sent home along with all other Valentines exchanged this Friday. In the future as we are planning for Valentine's Day, we can certainly look for items that are non-food related. However, I do not wish to disappoint any students nor make this a disruption to our learning environment. We will follow NEISD policy and not partake of any a food celebration. My apologies for the miscommunication as well as the confusion I caused for my staff. Thank you, Tara Bailey Dear Parents,
As Valentine's Day draws near, we would like to send out a few important reminders. In accordance with district policy, we are only allowed to have two party days per year. Tuscany Heights' party days for this year were decided at the beginning of the year, Winter Holiday Party and an End of the Year Party. By policy, we cannot allow students and/or parents to bring in treats, such as cookies, candy, cake, etc. for Valentine's day since it was not previously selected as one of our party days. Please know that the office will not be able to deliver balloons or flowers to classrooms. This Friday will be a normal instructional day with time for students to exchange Valentine Cards with their classmates. Thank you for your support. We are also recognizing Rodeo Day across the district. Please join us in dressing Western on Friday, Feb. 13th. Thank you, Tara Bailey Parents and Students,
I hope it has been a great weekend for all of you. We look forward to seeing the students back at school tomorrow. I wanted to share this link shared by one of our parents! It is nice to see the hard work of our THE students and staff recognized. So proud of them! http://www.texasschoolaccountabilitydashboard.org/ Scroll down for a message from Vineyard Ranch Elementary regarding enrollment of Dual Language Students. (Below, next to upcoming events.) Thank you for helping us secure student safety here at Tuscany Heights Elementary! We have a few recent concerns at the front traffic light and want to bring to your attention that Bexar County has reached out to a consulting company to investigate the intersection for support. We may start seeing new signs and possibly a new traffic light. In the meantime, please avoid using the Tuscany Heights Neighborhood Sign as a U-turn area. Also, our crossing guards are trained by North East Police Department on traffic safety. Please be aware of their signs, lights, and whistles even if the light changes. They are following the safety protocols taught in their workshops. We are doing everything we can to enforce SAFETY at THE. We appreciate your support as well! Thank you, Tara Bailey Upcoming Events Feb. 9th: Author Lisa Wheeler Presents to K-2 Feb. 9th- 13th: Collecting Box Tops (See PTA Section for more details) Feb. 12th: JAM Day Tuscany Heights Elementary joins the third annual JAM (Just A Minute) world record. For a few minutes on February 12, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. our Tigers will be joining students from across the nation to take a short fitness break. This fitness activity will be broadcast throughout the school and all of our students will have the opportunity to join in the JAM workout. Our hope is for all our children to learn healthy habits and get active every day.
