Dear Families and Caregivers,
TLC Community News:
Happy Friday! I hope you all had a good week. We want to remind families that there is no school next Monday in observance of Indigenous People’s Day. As we transform our teaching and learning about Indigenous People, I wanted to share books that provide critical perspectives and analysis of indigenous peoples.

Next week is TLC’s spirit week! Please see the daily themes below. Your child's following teacher will share class colors soon. Our seniors will visit ECC/Elementary to work with our students on spirit week activities. Our students will also be joining a virtual pep rally on Friday to cheer on our student-athletes!
Elementary News:
We enjoyed seeing families during our Open House on Tuesday. If you were not able to attend, your child’s following teacher will be sharing their presentation with you. We also encourage you to reach out to your child’s following teacher if you have any questions. 
 
Elementary welcomes two new students -- second grader, Andre Goble and fourth grader, Jose Hernandez!

Reminder:
For late arrivals and early pick-ups: Please call the Elementary front office at 774-244-3112 or email: elementarydept@tlcdeaf.org. If students are dropped off after 8:00 AM, please check in at the White House, and a staff member from Elementary will come and meet your child.  
Enjoy the weekend!
