Cougar Connection Newsletter

A note from Mrs. Cureton:

We are so glad to have all of our Cougars back on campus! We hope that all of our families had a great break! 

Today, we celebrated our A & AB Honor Roll, Perfect Attendance, & Cougar of the Month award winners at our 2nd 9 weeks Leader Assembly. Please see our campus Facebook page for some awesome pictures from that fun event! 

PTA Fundraiser

Next week, our Cougars will decorate pizza boxes for the PTA Marcos Pizza Fundraiser. Families will be able to order pizza from Marcos from January 17th-19th and see your student's pizza box artwork! There will be a flyer coming home next week (and it is below) with more details. This is a great way to see your student's artwork and help give back to our PTA. PTA uses fundraiser monies to help with our field day events, student celebrations, and teacher treats!

PE Curriculum Survey--Parents: your input is needed

QuaverHealth.PE is the curriculum for your student's elementary health education. Parents can preview the materials by visiting this link: https://apps.tylerisd.org/public/quaverhealth_pe_opt_in_links_fy2023.pdf

Please fill out the following health form to select what you want or don't want your child to learn in class regarding health topics. 

The Health Opt-In Form is located in the Parent Self-Serve Portal at https://frontline.tylerisd.org...

You are your child’s primary educator and the most important influence on your child's health decisions. The QuaverHealth.PE lessons are designed to reinforce what you teach at home. 

If you have questions about the curriculum, please email Hayley Skinner, Coordinator of Health and Physical Education at Hayley.Skinner@TylerISD.org.

Have a great weekend!

-Sarah Cureton, Principal
