    Dear TES First Class PreK Family,

     

    We are so pleased to welcome you to our TROJAN family as part of the First Class PreK Program! This is an exciting time for everyone as we begin a new school year and we want to make this transition a great experience for your family. 

     

    Our Parent Orientation for First Class PreK classes will be held Thursday, August 3 at 5:15 in the Hank Jones Early Childhood Center at Troy Elementary School. This is a required meeting for First Class PreK parents. We request parents only at this meeting. Students will have the opportunity to meet their teachers Monday, August 7, from 1:00-3:30. 

     

    During the selection process, you registered in the First Class PreK site. You will also need to complete the required paperwork for a NEW student at Troy Elementary. You can find this at www.troyschools.net, click on Registration (not prek registration), to download and print the required documents OR you can come by the main office at Troy Elementary School to pick up a new student registration packet. 

     

    Please see information below regarding necessary items and appreciated supplies: 

    - We take a nap every day.  Cots and sheets are provided, but students will need a nap mat or blanket.  We will send it home each Friday for cleaning.

    -We have two outside play times each day.  Students will need a water bottle to keep at school for outside time.  We will send it home each Friday for cleaning.

    -We get messy and sometimes have accidents.  Students will need a change (or two) of clothes (shirt, shorts, underwear, socks) to keep at school. 

    -We send home weekly newsletters and frequent paper communications from TES.  Folders/Binders are provided.  Students will need a backpack that can fit a small folder/binder. 

    -Breakfast is provided daily and time is given in our classroom to eat.

    -We snack every afternoon.  Please send a snack and a drink with your student every day. 

    -Please put your student’s name on anything that belongs to them!   We won’t remember (at the beginning of the year) and they won’t either!
