Good Evening Topsail Elementary Families! 

This is Mrs. Wilson with your weekly update. Just a reminder that you can see the full version of this message in your e-mail or you can find it on our school website under the "about " heading and then by clicking on "Weekly Message".

We want to thank all of our families who contributed to our food drive and all who contributed to our diverse book fundraiser! In addition, we want to thank all families who attended our Glow Bash on Friday evening! Thank you so much for your support of our school community! 

Scholastic Book Fair will be at TES starting Thursday 2/17 and ending on Wednesday 2/23. Check your student's communication for the assigned time for them to shop (their regular library time). Check out the on-line shopping option found on our Scholastic website, the link is below. Be sure to look into the e-wallet option for on campus/in-store purchases. Feel free to send in a list of suggestions if you have younger students. There will be volunteers here to help! Happy shopping!

PTA Updates:

Thank you to everyone that attended the Glow Bash Friday night.  It was wonderful to see everyone together having FUN!  We appreciate the support of each person that attended, purchased raffle tickets and silent auction items and those who donated those items and baskets.  Your support helps us to continue to improve our school for each student and staff member.  If you won a raffle basket and did not take it with you Friday night, please make arrangements to pick these up from the office at your earliest convenience.  If you won a silent auction item, please make arrangements for pick up and payment in the office as soon as possible.  We are able to accept cash and check payments only.  

This week we celebrate bus driver appreciation week.  TES PTA will celebrate our bus drivers each day with breakfasts, lunches and special treats.  Please be sure to follow our Facebook page to see the wonderful community sponsors who have helped make this week extra special.  Be sure to show your drivers extra love this week.    Teacher Appreciation Week is held each May. We are looking for parents interested in serving on that committee. An initial planning meeting will be held soon! Please let us know if you would like to help by emailing us at ptatopsailelementary.gmail.com

We look forward to a great week at TES! Thank you and have a great evening!
