Welcome Back!
On behalf of everyone at Terrace Road School, I am delighted to welcome our students, families, and staff to a new school year. We are excited to begin another year of learning, growing, and working together as a community. At Terrace Road, we are committed to creating a safe, caring, and inclusive environment where every student feels a sense of belonging and has the opportunity to thrive. We look forward to connecting with families, celebrating our traditions, and creating meaningful learning experiences for all.
School Forms and Volunteering
A reminder that all school forms are due back by September 15. This includes the mandatory demographic forms, which can be found and completed online, as well as the student-signed Admirable Use of Technology forms. These forms are essential for updating our records and ensuring that every student has the supports they need.
If you are interested in volunteering, or if you are unsure of your current volunteer status, please phone the office and connect with Sherisse. She will be happy to work with you to create a plan so that you can begin volunteering as soon as possible.
The Terrace Road Corn Roast
We are excited to invite all TRS families to our Welcome Back Corn Roast this Thursday, September 11, from 4:30–6:30 p.m. The event will take place outdoors, weather permitting, in a relaxed picnic-style atmosphere. This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with other families, meet staff, and celebrate the start of the school year together.
If you would like to volunteer to help make this event a success, please sign up through Parent Council here: Volunteer Sign-Up
Communication at TRS
Our goal at Terrace Road School is to maintain timely, open, and effective communication with all families. We want everyone to feel connected to what students are learning in class and aware of upcoming activities.
This year, you can expect:
- Weekly classroom blog updates from teachers
- Communication folders with current learning artifacts
- Phone calls from teachers to share successes and maintain strong connections
We believe that working in partnership with families helps every child thrive, and we look forward to ongoing collaboration throughout the year.
School Council
Our first School Council meeting will take place on Wednesday, September 25, at 6:00 p.m. I encourage all families to come out and take part in this important council, which plays a direct role in supporting student learning and strengthening the sense of community at Terrace Road School. Your voice and perspective are invaluable, and we hope to see many of you there.
Closing Thoughts
We are thrilled to begin another year of learning and growing together at Terrace Road School. I believe that strong relationships with families are the foundation for student success, and I invite you to reach out at any time. My door is always open, and I welcome open communication as we work together to make this school year a memorable and successful one for every student.
