📚 Tatem Orientation: September 3

👋 We can’t wait to say hi to all of the new Tatem Tigers at tomorrow’s orientations and share the fun our PTA has planned for the new school year.

🐯 Kindergarten families: A little heads-up for your soon-to-be Tatem Tiger! During a portion of orientation, Kindergarten students will head upstairs to visit their classroom with their teacher while parents remain downstairs. You may want to give your little one a heads-up beforehand so they know what to expect. 💚

👕 The PTA is excited to gift each new student and teacher a school shirt. The incoming Kindergarteners get a fresh design - also available for sale at upcoming school store tables.

🛍️ The Tatem School Store will also be open during orientation, so be sure to stop by and check out our other Tatem swag!

❕Tiger Tip of the Day: Plan A Safe Route to School
🛴 Walking, biking or scooting to school is a fun way to connect with friends while starting the day with some fresh air and avoiding the stress of car line! Tatem has 3 bike racks & 1 scooter rack for kids to secure their wheels and helmets.
💌 If you're interested in starting a Walking School Bus, a Bike Bus, or working on general student safety initiatives, email Lauren [[email protected]].
