TeSA

TeSA Families,

I hope this finds all of you safe and without too many damages from the extreme weather last week. If your family is still experiencing power outages or lack of water, or is struggling in any other way, please reach out to me or our School Counselor, Ms. Kiera Wallace. We want to make sure you and your students have everything needed.

Ms. Wallace will also be keeping a Zoom room open for any At-Home student who needs to talk tomorrow. Our students have been through a lot already with COVID restrictions and quarantines, and many may be struggling with yet another isolation. If your At-Home student needs to meet with Ms. Wallace, please log on HERE. If you'd like your In-School student to meet with Ms. Wallace, please email kiera.wallace@mytesa.org so she can arrange a time that will not interfere with direct instruction.

Artistically & Academically Yours,

Betsy Compton, M.A., M.A.T., M.Ed.

Principal

Texas School of the Arts

Our Lost & Found is overflowing! Since we were not able to open the building last week, the Lost and Found will remain in the foyer through this Friday. If your child is missing any uniform pieces, water bottles, lunch boxes, or ballet shoes, come take a look.

Thank you for making sure ALL of your child's items are labeled!

We have been very blessed at TeSA that our COVID positive case count has been so low overall this year. We had an influx of cases over the past several weeks, but our active case count is dropping every day and we have very few students in quarantine right now. Thank you for continuing to follow our Six Core Practices to keep everyone safe!

Nurse Edna's COVID Reminders

• Send your children to school wearing a mask, and with at least one extra in the backpack.
• If your student has been within close contact of anyone showing COVID symptoms, he/she should quarantine and participate in At-Home Learning.
• If your student or a close contact is waiting on results of a COVID test, he/she should quarantine and participate in At-Home Learning.
• If in doubt, stay home to be safe. At-Home Learning is a temporary option at any time.
  
• Email Nurse Edna at edna.robinson@mytesa.org with any questions.
  

We are nearing the deadline for creating our 2020-2021 TeSA Yearbook. We want every child represented! If you've taken any pictures this year on campus or at home, we want to see them! Email any school-related pictures to yearbook@mytesa.org.

Each week we recognize someone going above and beyond, and this week we celebrate all of our TeSA first responders. Within our TeSA school family, we have several healthcare professionals, members of law enforcement and fire departments, and brave men and women working to keep all of our roads and infrastructure safe. Thank you for serving our communities throughout the whole DFW area! We appreciate you all!
