Holiday Food Baskets & Toys

Each year the Lions Club of Coppell provides holiday baskets and toys to families in the Coppell ISD attendance area.  Last year Lion's Club provided a special Christmas for over 127 families and hundreds of children who might otherwise have gone without.  The food baskets and toys are delivered by members of the Lions Club of Coppell, and the identity of the recipients is kept confidential.  All Lion's Club needs to know is the address and the family demographics, sizes, and any special needs the family may have.  If your family would like to apply for a holiday basket and toys, please email Town Center's counselor, Kelly Matlock, at kmatlock@coppellisd.com.

5th Grade Spelling Bee

We had our Class Bees on Friday, November 18th. The top students from each class have been invited to participate in the School Bee, which will be on Wednesday, December 7th. The study lists cannot be posted online, but it has been directly shared with students. If your son or daughter will be in the School Bee, please encourage him/her to spend time studying at home so he/she is set up for success. If you have any questions or would to learn more, please view the presentation below. 

  
Free & Reduced Meals 
For the last two years, free and reduced meals were provided for all Texas public school children.  Beginning September 29th, families must complete an application to qualify for free or reduced priced meals. For more information, check out the Coppell ISD Child Nutrition website.  Complete your School Meal Application here.  Allow up to ten days to process your application. 

iPads
TCE 5th graders should come to school each day with their iPad and charger. Please ensure your child charges his/her iPad each evening. Your child should also check periodically to ensure his/her iPad's software is up to date (settings --> general --> software update). 

Snack
We will have a short snack time each day while we continue to work. 5th graders do not each lunch until 1:00 PM each day, so it's important that they have a healthy and nutritious snack each day to fuel their bodies. We also ask that the snack they bring is completely free of peanuts/tree nuts. This will help provide a safe environment for all learners. Thank you for your help!
