Patriot Family Gazette 11/3/23

Patriot Families,

What a great start to November! We had an amazing time last week at Jack Jubilee, got some cooler weather to welcome us to November, and the Rangers won the World Series! We are only two weeks away from Thanksgiving, and we are still Owning and Living our Legacy here at Jack. Our Art Night was a hit this week, and we have some other special events coming up in the next two weeks including field trips, Thanksgiving celebrations and more. Thank you again to our Jack Jubilee sponsors and coordinators for a wonderful fall celebration.

For our 5th grade parents, AVID applications for middle school next year are open (please see the link below). We also have Kona Ice next week, and we are in the preparation stages for our December Polar Express Read-a-thon fundraiser and teacher treats.

Thanks again for all you do and have a great weekend!

How can you purchase baseball merchandise specific for Tyler Legacy? The link below is a store the baseball team has set up selling spirit gear and items are available in youth sizes. The online store includes specifics for delivery to each school and a baseball booster club member will deliver the items to each elementary/middle school once the orders come in should your students order. We are currently exploring options to have a Future Red Raiders program with baseball. Thanks so much!
