Town Center Principal Newsletter

A big thank you for all the food and prize donations that were given for our December Faculty Meeting. We appreciate the generosity of our TCE Families!

It's time for the annual 2023-2024 Creative Writing Competition with Coppell Gifted Association. This will be the 16th year, and we're looking forward to it being a great competition!

We are starting the competition a bit later in the school year this year, with the deadline for entries being moved to January 19th, 2024. Other important competition details include:

• Open to any student in grades 4-12; a student does not need to be in the GT program to participate.
• FREE for Coppell ISD students to enter.
• Categories: STORY and POETRY
• Details and Rules can be found at Creative Writing Competition Rules and FAQ | Coppell Gifted Association

Our yearbook sale is now open! Each year we have a Town Center Yearbook that highlights photos from every class, school events, and staff. It is a great item to have to look back on memories from the year, and we even have a yearbook signing party in May. If you are interested in purchasing a yearbook, please see the graphic below for the different purchasing options. As a reminder, the TCE Yearbook cost WAS NOT included in the TCE Trail Pass. If you would like a yearbook for your child(ren), you will need to purchase using the website link below.

Our yearbook committee would also love your help in submitting photos for the yearbook. As you attend campus events, if you have any photos you would like to share, see below for information on uploading them to our committee.

We ask that all families complete a volunteer background check. They do not carry over from year to year. Since the background checks take time to process, we ask that everyone complete one in case any type of volunteering opportunity (class field trip, Dads Club, Room parent, class volunteer, field day, etc.) arises during the year that you are interested in. Please click on the link below to complete.
