Stallion Families-
We had such a great week at T.G. Smith!
Our Coin Wars were so much fun to watch; students were incredibly strategic about where they placed their money, all while supporting a great cause. We exceeded our goal! Thank you for encouraging their participation and generosity! Thank you PTA for organizing everything!
We also want to thank everyone for supporting our Color Run today and making it a huge success. It was wonderful to see so many smiling faces and such a strong sense of community.
Next week is Spring Break. We hope your family enjoys a restful and refreshing week! We look forward to welcoming everyone back on March 30th as we finish the semester strong.
Have the BEST Spring Break,
Mrs. Simco & Mrs. Barron
Important Reminders:
- Spring Break: School will not be in session March 23rd-27th, 2026.
- Spring Break BINGO: Students who complete the BINGO challenge below can bring it back to Mrs. Carlton on March 30th for a prize.
- Attendance Matters: As testing season approaches, it is especially important for students to be at school every day and on time. Each day of instruction helps build the skills and confidence students need to do their very best on upcoming tests. Families play a key role in student success. You can help by making sure your child arrives at school every day and on time, ready to learn. Thank you for partnering with us to support your child’s success!
