Hello October! 🍂🎃 We’re excited to welcome a brand new month full of learning, growth, and fun! We hope your family enjoyed a restful long weekend and that your student is energized and ready to dive into all the wonderful experiences ahead.

As we enter October, we would like to remind you of the importance of daily attendance. Every day counts! Please help us by ensuring your child arrives by 7:45 AM and by limiting early pick-ups whenever possible. If your student is absent due to illness or other reasons, please remember to send a written note upon their return.

We’re thrilled to share that our student clubs are up and running. Our koalas are loving the enriching and exciting opportunities they offer! From creativity to collaboration, these clubs are helping our students shine.

Please remind your child that our Terrell staff is here to help! If your child experiences a situation where they feel another student is bothering them or notice something that they know is not the Koala Way, please encourage them to reach out immediately to any trusted staff member. Immediacy of a report helps adults address concerns and quickly support all students effectively. If you see something, say something.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Let’s make this month amazing!

October is packed with engaging events and celebrations, so be sure to review this newsletter carefully. We don’t want you to miss a moment of the fun!

Warmly,

Principal

We will be collecting candy donations to support the Green Track Trunk or Treat at Tomas HS on Oct. 17th. Please send a bag with your student beginning Sept. 22 to add to the donation boxes around campus.

Thank to our community partners who have donated to support our school this year!

Transportation changes will not be accepted after 2:10 pm or 10:45 on early release dates. To submit a transportation change, please call the office at (832) 223-6500 or write a note for your child to bring with them, reflecting the transportation changes. Neither email nor voicemail is an approved method of communication for transportation changes.

You may check out your child early if needed for doctor's appointments or other necessary reasons until 2:30 PM on full days or 10:05 on early release dates. Please limit this as much as possible, as we are actively instructing and learning until 3:05 PM each day. If your student repeatedly leaves early, they are potentially missing key information.
