TJ Austin Elementary December 11-15

🎄🔔✨T.J. Austin Families, ✨🔔🎄

As we approach the holiday season and prepare to bid farewell to another incredible Fall semester, we wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for your unwavering support and dedication.

The past few months have been filled with remarkable growth, joyous discoveries, and incredible achievements for our students. We couldn't have done it without your continuous encouragement and involvement in their education journey. Your support truly makes a difference!

As we enter the Christmas break, we encourage you to cherish these moments with your loved ones, create beautiful memories, and embrace the spirit of togetherness.

Remember to rest, recharge, and revel in the magic of the season. Whether you're traveling, staying close to home, or exploring new adventures, we wish you a safe, joyful, and heartwarming holiday season filled with love, laughter, and endless happiness.

Thank you for entrusting us with your children's education. We can't wait to see all the bright and eager faces again in the new year!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at TJ Austin! 🎅🎁🎉

The bell rings at 7:50 AM each day, and learning begins at that time! Students are LATE if they arrive at that time and must be dropped off at the front of the school. If you are dropping your child off at the front after the bell rings, you need to get out with your child, sign them in, and provide our attendance clerk with the reason for your child's tardiness.

• Car Tags- Please keep your car tag hanging and visible until your child is in the car.
• Please keep in mind, that we will not release students past 2:30 PM.
• Updated Contacts- Parents, please review your child's emergency contacts in the parent portal. If someone is not on the list, we cannot release students, even with their license provided. Please update all contact information!
• If a student is dropped off at 7:50 AM or later, you will need to sign in at the front office.
• For any changes in after-school transportation, please contact the office by 2:00 PM so that we have time to relay the message to the student and teacher.
• Label EVERYTHING! At the end of each 9-week period, all unclaimed items (jackets, clothing, shoes, etc.) will be donated. Please write your child's name on their clothing and items so that it can be identified more easily.
• Connect with your child's teacher by signing up for their teacher communication (Remind, Dojo, etc.)
