TEMS CARE

If your child is having any trouble either in school or at home, our CARE team is here to help. The CARE team consists of a school principal, counselors, the school mental health specialist, classroom teachers and community agency staff.  The team works to identify issues which pose a barrier to a students’ learning and school success and support possible struggles in an academic, behavior, or social-emotional area of development.  Teachers, parents and students who observe concerning behavior in a student are encouraged to reach out to a CARE team member and submit a referral.  All referrals are confidential and once one has been made, the team will work together to gather information, consult with the parent and student and make recommendations for additional support. 

Green Initiative

Each of us can make a difference by reducing, reusing, and recycling materials throughout our communities and encouraging our neighbors (and our kids) to do the same. 

TEMS Recycling Program

 Recycling drop-off is available at TEMS all year!  Bins are located in the main lobby upon entry to the school. We will continue to collect writing instruments (no wooden pencils or crayons please), clean plastic bags, printer cartridges and dental products (toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes, empty floss rolls) in the bins in the front lobby.  Click on this link for more details.


 Brought to you by the TESD Green Team. To learn more or get involved, please contact: Tracy at tracyteeselink@aol.com, Val at valcheng@gmail.com or Gaby at gabysnyder@yahoo.com
