Tildenville Elementary School Community Brief Wednesday, August 9, 2023 | |
|
Dear Mark,
I hope this back to school issue of The Tiger's Roar! for 2023-2024 finds you having experienced an enjoyable summer break. Our amazing teachers have actually been back at school since August 2 preparing for their students' return on Thursday, August 10. We have been engaged in our annual pre-planning period where we review our goals, conduct specialized training sessions, discuss new and existing policies & procedures, and collaborate in both large and small teams. It has been a very productive pre-planning experience and we are all now very excited to welcome back our Tigers on Thursday!

This edition was prepared primarily to remind our Tildenville families of some important back to school information before school starts tomorrow. Please remember that you may always email or call the school with any questions you might have. Backed with the support of our wonderful Tiger families, this is going to be a very promising, and successful 2023-2024 school year!
In Tiger Pride,
Agathe Alvarez
Proud Principal
Tildenville Elementary School

All of our school principals have been provided information and guidance to share and we have also made the same information available to you on the district’s website Parental Rights in OCPS webpage.

Countdown to Kindergarten 2023 was a smashing success!
Incoming Tigers had the opportunity practice Kindergarten skills such as cutting, coloring, tracing, and gluing. They also became familiarized with class procedures such as lining up, walking in a straight and quiet line, and listening to instructions. By the end of the event, fears had dwindled, and playground fun ensued. A great time was had by all! Thank you to the 75 families that joined us over the course of the week.
