TAEP: PK-4 Holiday Concert Info and Sign-Out Procedures
The grades PK-4 Holiday Concert is today at 1:00 in the gym. Those attending can begin to arrive at 12:30. The event will also be live streamed on the Terra Alta East Preston Facebook Page. If you are signing your student out following the show, there will be class rosters on a table when you enter the building for you to initial next to your child's name. After the program, students will return to class and we will send your child back to the cafeteria with their belongings where they will be checked off with one of the staff. We will have runners going back to get the students to bring them up. Only parents who are signing out students or picking up Portland Coffee should be in the cafeteria after. If you have a student in grades 5-8 who will be attending for their sibling or relative, you need to let Ms. Jessie know in the office prior to going into the gym, and will then follow the same sign-out procedures.
This is a reminder that Preston County Schools will dismiss 2 hours early on Friday, December 22nd & students will remain on winter break until January 3rd. Preston County Schools wishes all of our families and staff a safe and wonderful holiday break.

Just a reminder that tomorrow is our Elementary Holiday Program beginning at 1:00, with tomorrow's theme day being, "Wear Your Holiday Best." Parents can begin coming to the gym at 12:30. We will also livestream the program on Facebook. Second, if you have a student in grades K-5, they each received a copy of the book, "Winter According to Humphrey." You are encouraged to read this book with your student over the break, or have them read it to you. See the attached flyer, or on Facebook, but there is also a website where you can record your student's progress, let us know what you think of the book, as well as watch read aloud videos of the book, courtesy of the Preston High School National Honors Society. Lastly, if you had Portland Coffee orders, they will be available following the program tomorrow.

In response to a notification by the district's food vendor (Gordon Food Service), referencing a product recall related to potential contamination with salmonella of several Quaker Oats products including Quaker Chewy Granola Bar Cookies and Cream that were distributed through the backpack food program that services multiple district schools during the month of December. Efforts are being made to remove the impacted product from any further distributions. However, please discard any recalled items that have been distributed prior to the recall notice.
Due to anticipated winter weather conditions, Preston County Schools are cancelling all afterschool activities for tomorrow, Monday, December 18, 2023. The scheduled Board of Education Meeting at Fellowsville has been postponed and will be rescheduled. The rescheduled date and time of the meeting will be announced as soon as possible.
TAEP: Just a reminder that tomorrow kicks off holiday spirit week, so wear red and green to get the week started. We will be live streaming the assembly and MS Band/Choir concert tomorrow. We will make a decision by day's end pending weather on the evening concert. Also, just a correction in schedule for basketball previously put out, our home games against South are on Thursday the 21st, not Tuesday the 19th. Sorry for any confusion.
