Hello TMS families.

This is a friendly reminder. Please do not send medications of any kind to school with your students. This includes medications for Camp Glen Helen, prescription medications and any over the counter medications. If the student needs medication at school, there are forms that need to be filled out and a parent or guardian must bring the medication in. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at 513-273-3314 or by email at hartr@talawanda.org.

If you have any other questions please email Annie Klenk, klenke@talawanda.org.

The November 18 FCCLA meeting has been canceled. Our next meeting will be Wednesday, December 9, from 2:10–3:10 PM. We will decorate cookies and make no-sew blankets to donate for the holidays. We hope to see you there!

Breakfast Reminder

Breakfast is served each morning at school, and we encourage students to take advantage of it! We want every student to have the opportunity to start their day with a good breakfast and be ready to learn.

Students who are late arriving to class because they were eating breakfast in the cafeteria will have that tardy excused. Students should still report to the office to receive a pass to class once they have finished eating.

Purchasing Extras at Lunch

Extra items are available for students to purchase during lunch, including ice cream, cookies, chips, bottled water, juice, fruit roll-ups, rice krispie treats ect.

Please remember that students must have enough money available on their meal account to cover the cost of their lunch AND any extras items they wish to purchase. Extras cannot be charged to an account or purchased if there are not sufficient funds available.

Adding funds to your student's meal account ahead of time helps make lunchtime checkout quick and easy.

If you have any questions regarding breakfast, lunch or purchasing extras, please feel free to contact me.

After school Engineering and Coding Club starts in September. This is a dynamic and engaging environment where students in 6-8th grade can explore the world of engineering and coding. Our club is designed for students who are interested in technology, problem-solving, and innovation. Two Miami University based clubs will be directing our engineering and coding activities this year. Kode2Learn is a student organization that organizes and runs events for kids in the Oxford area that promote teamwork and problem solving through the use of computer programming. SWE (Society of Women Engineers) organization's goal is to encourage our middle school students to consider engineering or computing as a career and provide activities related to engineering/coding.
