Back to school night at TES! We can’t think of a better way to show parents what TEF is all about than having a student read a poem they wrote during the Poetry Residency with poet BJ Ward! This program was provided to the 3 rd grade last year by TEF with your generous donations!!!

From the Tewksbury Athletic Association: The TAA B

From the Tewksbury Athletic Association: The TAA Boy's Lacrosse program is offering a free clinic on Sundays at Voorhees High School. The sessions will be held from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm on the turf starting on September 18th. There is no equipment necessary. We will teach the fundamentals of the game and can fast track players if they like into full padded games immediately. Any first time player in grades 2nd-4th who participates in this clinic will receive a custom lacrosse stick if they sign up for the spring season (See photo for image of stick)
We have a great group of kids in the program already, but we want more and hope your children will check it out. No equipment, no cost, and no obligations!!! Please email Mike Bruton at mikebruton3@gmail.com if you would like to attend or if you have any questions.

And if you could not make it, we look forward to getting to know you soon! We can’t wait to bring another year of innovative and exciting programs to our schools! A big thank you to @flipsidefarmcsa for providing us with those beautiful flowers to decorate our event with!

The start of a new school year is almost here! Thi

The start of a new school year is almost here! This next week will be filled with lots of back to school rituals like the TES classroom sneak peak, getting those school supplies, maybe a new pair of sneakers or backpack. This busy excitement can sometimes leave our children feeling a little uneasy about the new year ahead. A great way to help open up a discussion with your child about their feelings is to read a book together. Here are some of our favorite back to school books:
- A Letter From Your Teacher On the First Day of School by Shannon Olsen is a delightful story about all of the things a teacher is excited to experience with their class.
-We Don't Eat Our Classmates by Ryan T. Higgins is a favorite with all ages and a book parents will enjoy just as much!
-School's First Day of School by Adam Rex is a great book for older elementary school ages because the story is told from the building's point of view.

Congratulations to Amanda Kouzis for receiving a TEF grant for Babagot BARS! Today (6/6) and tomorrow (6/7), OTS students experience this upbeat multi-media assembly to explore the fun process of hip hop song writing while comparing the art form to the practical skill of essay writing. Using positive music videos and song lyrics, Baba Bomani introduces students to his special "Bomani Armah wRiting System" (B.A.R.S), and students are encouraged to find and create art that reflects their lives and aspirations. Baba Bomani also tells the story of Frederick Douglass, as well as the story of the evolution of American music starting with the continent of Africa, moving on to Scott Joplin and ragtime music of the 1920's, then culminating in today's hip hop music. Positive, motivating, and challenging!
