Patriot Family Gazette 4/25/24

Patriot Families,

What a great week wrapping our state testing season and putting our focus on EOY activities and celebrations. Please see the details in the calendar below for the month of May. It's a busy month and there are numerous opportunities available for you to engage with your student here on campus. Teacher appreciation week, Leadership Day/Night, Field Day and EOY ceremonies and events. Take note and mark your calendar to come and celebrate the culmination of a great year at Jack.

Please take note that traffic on Monday and Tuesday from Cumberland road will be detoured due to construction on the intersection of Blue Mountain and Cumberland. A detailed map was sent out via communication earlier this week and today. Take caution and leave early if needed to assure that you Patriot will arrive on time.

Thank you for all you do to support our Mission of Building Leaders of Tomorrow and we look forward to a great last 4 weeks of school!

Have a great weekend,

Brett Shelby

- Please drop off by 7:50. Our tardy bell rings at that time and we want our Patriots ready to learn with us.

- We cannot release kids after 2:45 due to dismissal procedures. If you have appointments, please make arrangements to pick up by this time.

How can you purchase baseball merchandise specific for Tyler Legacy? The link below is a store the baseball team has set up selling spirit gear and items are available in youth sizes. The online store includes specifics for delivery to each school and a baseball booster club member will deliver the items to each elementary/middle school once the orders come in should your students order. We are currently exploring options to have a Future Red Raiders program with baseball. Thanks so much!
