Just a reminder: Tenaha ISD will Early Release this Friday at 11:30; Elementary Pick-up will begin at 11:15am. We will also observe a School Holiday on Monday, October 23rd! Enjoy your time off Tigers!

Mrs. Huckabee and Mrs. Dunn are having all the FUN over in the middle school!! Mrs. Dunn's digital arts students made paper towers to investigate the design process. Mrs. Huckabee's photography students are working on Food Photography and have been completing "styled shoots" with various food items and decor. Great job Tigers!!!

Our TES team 2nd Six Weeks challenge is going strong! The staff has gone all in showing kindness to others, visiting each others classrooms to learn something new, making positive contacts, and showing up each day ready to tackle any challenge in front of them.

More fun from Piney Park!

We were excited to have parents and our own counselor Ms. Stacie tag along as well.

Ms. Albert and Mrs. Garcia's 2nd and 3rd graders enjoyed a day out at Piney Park in Marshall last Thursday. Our students had tons of fun with activities from mazes, tractor rides, giant slides, to a walk along the Spooky Trail. They also learned how to make their own compost bins and what items in our environment can or can't break down. They also painted their very own pumpkin. Mrs. Ward was excited to tag along and super proud of how well they behaved and interacted during the outdoor lesson.

Fun Friday was in full effect in kinder! Mrs. King and Ms. Gracie's class showed their artistic talents painting. We aren't sure who had more fun, the students, or Ms. Gracie:) All of our students can enjoy their masterpieces as they walk down the elementary hallway.

This week, the elementary staff "wrote up" some of our big kids who assist our teachers daily in the classroom. Not only is this an excellent opportunity for our juniors and seniors to gain experience as an educator, but it is a huge help to our staff and students. Great job to all of our students who earned positive office referrals this week!

Don't forget!!! Next week is HOMECOMING!!! Tigers dress up all week and show your school spirit!!! Remember: all costumes must be in school dress code!!
