Safety: We want to remind parents to follow our assigned car rider procedures. Please enter and exit for morning and afternoon car riders using Jenkins Rd./St. Johns Church Rd. only. Please do NOT enter through the TAES or TMS entrances or cut through the bus parking lot. The safety of all students and staff on our three-school campus is always our top priority. We have had several close calls with students and staff almost getting hit due to people not following procedures and driving unsafely. Please help us keep all students and staff safe on all of our campuses.
Parent/Visitor Guidelines: If parents would like to join their students for lunch, you are welcome to do so! We do need to limit parent visits to just lunch time and not recess as well. For safety reasons, we are not able to allow parents to spend recess time here at school. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Congratulations to Mrs Graham’s 3rd grade class! With over 80% of their parents joining the PTA, they are the winners of the Fall Membership Drive ice cream party.
Yearbooks are on sale now! Go to strawbridge.net and use our school code YB25833 to order. All orders must be placed online. Yearbooks are $18 through March 1 and $20 thereafter.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: Many of you are familiar with the Spot Festival that occurs annually here in Hampstead (although they took a few years off for Covid). 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!
