R-PTLE Weekly Family Communication

Dear Families,

What an awesome week we just had at TLE. Our Holiday music event was a smashing hit - the talent in our building is impressive. We saw our 4th grade poets showcase their hard work and inspiration with community members in the Library. We also got to end our week with a fun Holiday dance at the school on Friday night! I appreciate all the great memories I was able to experience this past week. My heart is full!

Holiday Shop is open this week. $3.00 per item. It is awesome watching our students shopping for their loved ones. It lights them up when they get to buy presents for others. Thank you for supporting our PTO.

I just cannot believe it - it's the last week of learning for the year 2023. It will be a great week of learning and lasting memories at Twin Lake!

4th graders who not only display the Rocket Way (Respect-Pride-Integrity), they also consistently display a helping hand, a thoughtful gesture, and/or a general positive affect on our learning community. These students will engage with supporting younger students and take on other various leadership roles during the next two weeks.

Congratulations to this round of RBK's!
