TLES Families,
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your support making Staff Appreciation Week very special for our staff. We could not have pulled off an amazing week for our staff without the support of our TLES PTA. Thank you to all of our families who volunteered to coordinate meals, hand out flowers to staff upon their arrival, facilitate notes for our staff and so much more! This was a week full of love for individuals who are some of the most important and influential people in our childrens' lives. Thank you for making them feel loved and appreciated!
Sincerely,
Ben Chiet, Shele Banford, & Tracey Brown Rice

Update Your Emergency Care Information Through weCare@school
Fairfax County Public Schools provides weCare@school (weCare), an emergency care information system, to parents/caregivers who have registered for their own parent account. weCare helps manage emergency medical information by allowing parents to enter and update their children’s medical data online at their convenience. That contact information automatically enrolls parents/caregivers to receive eNotify communications from the district and their child’s school. eNotify is the communications tool for FCPS emergency, transportation, attendance, weather closings and delay, and essential outreach messages. Messages are sent via email, text, and occasionally phone.
Learn more about updating your emergency care information.
