Tuscany Heights Elementary School
August 25, 2013

Parents,

What fabulous Meet the Teacher Events!  We are so happy to get the opportunity to greet our parents one grade level at a time so that we can introduce ourselves, answer questions, and catch up on summer activities.  My staff has worked hard to make the beginning of school special for each of our students.  I am thrilled to have all of them on my Tuscany Team, thank you teachers!  Our teachers spent Friday completing last minute touches on their rooms for our students, too!  So, let’s begin school!!!!!

I want to take a moment to say thank you to our amazing PTA for their countless hours of help preparing everything from bulletin boards to helping design our Meet the Teacher.  Not to mention, running all of the gym tables, thank you!  We couldn't do it without all of you.  Also, we were so grateful for all of our student leaders.  We had elementary, middle school, and high school helpers for both of our events, thank you!

Thank you,
Tara Bailey

Helpful Information:

Arrival and Dismissal:
  • School opens at 7:15 a.m.
  • Staff arrives as early as 7:15 a.m.  We ask that you not drop your child off before 7:15, because there will not be staff members in the building at this time to ensure their safety.  If your work schedule does not allow this, we will work with you and arrange for your child to be monitored in the rotunda by one assistant that will arrive at 7:00 a.m.  There is limited space, so we ask that you please work with us if possible.  We want all of our students safely monitored while in our care!
  • Dismissal begins at 2:40 pm.
CAR
  • Car riders are picked up out front using our car rider line.  Please see the instructions on the back of your car rider tag.  If you wish to park and pick up your child, please use the back parking lot, come to the rotunda door with your car rider tag, and your child will be brought to you.
BUS
  • Bus riders dismiss out the back of the school and are placed on the bus identified by their district bus tag.
Daycare, Walkers, and/or KINS
  • Daycare and Walkers dismiss from the gyms where they are monitored and escorted by staff.  All KINS students will be dismissed to the cafeteria at this time.  The back cafeteria door will be open for your access to KINS after 3pm (before 3pm, we ask that you use the front office entrance).
Transportation - What is your child’s “Way Home” procedure?
  • Please ensure your teachers know how your child will travel home every day.
  • Be Consistent, Be Consistent, Be Consistent:  It is helpful for all staff if students travel home using the same mode of transportation in a consistent pattern.  We appreciate your help with this matter.
CAR RIDERS
  • Be sure to get a car rider tag for your child(ren) if you plan to pick them up.  You can obtain a tag at any time in the front office. Otherwise, you will be asked to show ID before your child is released.
Breakfast and Lunch
  • Breakfast has increased to $0.95
  • Lunch has increased to $1.95
