Good Afternoon Topsail Annandale Elementary Families! This is Mrs. Wilson with your weekly update. Nurse Vicki would like to remind all of our new students that their Health Assessments and Immunization Records are due to her by Sept. 27th. Students without completed forms will be excluded from school until the forms are received. Please contact the school with any questions. We are happy to announce that our Beginning-of-Year information packets for our RETURNING students are now all online. This is how you will update any phone or address changes for your student; ANY address changes must be accompanied by a Proof of Residency. It is very important to add anyone you want to be able to pick up your child from school or to be an emergency contact in these forms. Please note ONLY students that are RETURNING to Topsail Annandale Elementary School this year need to fill out these forms. New Families have already completed them. Click on the link below, enter your account information, and complete the process. Please contact julie_martine@pender. https://penderncc.scriborder.c Cell-Phones and Smart Watches: Per Pender County Schools policy, all cell-phones are to remain off and be stored in students' backpacks during the school day. If smart watches are worn, they must NOT be used for calls, texts, internet, photographs, or any type of communication during school hours. If students are found to be using phones or watches during school hours, they will be referred to a school administrator. If parents would like to join their students for lunch, you are welcome to do so! Please follow these guidelines: come at your child's assigned lunch time, check in in the school's front office and get a visitor's sticker, and please sit at the assigned "family table" in the cafeteria. For safety reasons, only your child will be allowed to sit with you at the family table (no other students from the class). In addition, if you bring lunch, please only bring food for your child. Due to allergies and health guidelines, we cannot allow you to bring lunch for other students. We do need to limit parent visits to just lunch time and not recess as well. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. We are so excited we have had so many students join our new Club Unify! At this time our club is full and sign-ups are closed.

If you're not familiar...it's food trucks, crafts, community organizations/vendors, school and local community group performances, a kids game/activity area, and spots (fish) meals being served! Some of the proceeds from the festival come back to our schools, depending on the number of volunteer hours we provide at the festival. The festival will take place on Sat and Sun 11/5 and 11/6 this year. If you have one, wear your school t-shirt and represent us well! If you want a "good volunteer spot" or want to volunteer with friends, sign up soon! Any help is appreciated and the money comes back to TAES! https://www.signupgenius.com/g Mark your calendars for our next spirit night at Oval and Ale on Wednesday October 12th from 4-9pm. Do you have pictures for the yearbook? Please upload them to the link below. Be sure to give us as much info as you can (teacher, grade, student names, etc). Be sure to join the PTA!
