Greetings TSES Families,
Next week is Staff Appreciation Week, and we will be celebrating our wonderful staff! Please take a moment to reach out to your child's teacher to share your gratitude with them. As you know, the TSES staff are AMAZING and work hard each day to educate and care for all of our students. We will be celebrating them in many ways next week and are appreciative of our PTA's support in doing so. Thank you to our community for your continued support!
This morning we completed an evacuation drill at approximately 9:15. All students, staff, and visitors evacuated the building following our emergency plan procedures. The drill lasted approximately five minutes before everyone returned to the building and resumed our normal instructional schedule. Our students and staff did a wonderful job, and we appreciate everyone's cooperation during these drills. Please feel free to contact Dr. Derek Lewis at derek_lewis@hcpss.org with any questions you may have.

2024-2025 Bus Service Registration
To help HCPSS plan for student transportation needs for the 2024-2025 school year, bus service registration for the 2024-2025 school year will open for parents/guardians of eligible students on April 8. Families will be notified on April 4 via districtwide email/website post with translations, and a reminder in the HCPSS News email to families on April 10. Families will be asked to complete registration by May 31 to better inform development of routes and busing needs.
Following the April 8 open date, schools should remind families of the bus registration requirement and process. Details on Bus Transportation Registration are available on the HCPSS website. At this time, schools are not being asked to follow-up with eligible families that do not complete registration; however, please encourage families to register through May 31 using multiple methods such as school newsletters and announcements at school and community events. More information is forthcoming. Questions may be directed to the Office of Student Transportation.
