Tate Elementary School

No school February 16th - February 20th.

First grade students playing reading battleship to practice our spelling pattern for the week in small group.

Mrs. Poag's class enjoyed ice skating on paper plates in the auditorium while learning about Skaters' Waltz in music class.

Mark your calendars!

The School Advisory Council, a team of parents, staff, and community members, meet regularly to help plan, review, and evaluate the Title I program, ensuring federal funds are used effectively to improve student academic achievement. They will be meeting on Thursday, February 12th. If you would like to be a part of this we would love to have you.

Happy Counselor Day to Mrs Lorey, our multitasking Ninja.

"School counselor because awesome multitasking ninja isn't a real job title."

Mrs. Lorey would like to thank the ladies from The Dorcas Circle, Jasper United Methodist Church, for their generous donation to help provide food for the volunteers for our Trucks and Tools Event. Thank you for being a part of our Tate Family!

Parents/Guardians,

The Special Education Department at Tate Elementary needs your valuable input on our Parent Survey for Students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) (including students who receive speech-only services). Please take a few minutes to let us know what we are doing great and what we could work on to best meet the needs of your child. We appreciate your time!

Celebrating the 100th day the only way we know how.. FUN!

Our PTO really is the best. They are constantly going above and beyond for all of us, staff and our kiddos. We are very lucky to have them.

We are also very lucky to have the amazing sponsors that want to be a part of helping them help us. HUGE shoutout to Woodward Pool and Spa for the snow cones! Thank you for being a part of our Tate family.

Good Morning Tate Families,

We are sorry for the late notice. Please share with anyone you know who uses the before or after school programs.
