In an effort to provide the safest learning environments for our students, we are asking that families provide the following supplies for their child this fall. If you cannot provide these supplies, we will provide them for you. Understandably, the sharing of individual supplies among students would pose a health risk in our classrooms. We will continue to have school supplies available to supplement what is provided from home.
Suggested Supplies:
1 Hard pencil case (not a cloth one) that can be wiped clean. Please label/write your child’s name clearly on the outside.
A set of wired earbuds or headphones
2-3 glue sticks (big)
3-5 sharpened pencils
Small, personal pencil sharpener
1 pair of student-sized scissors
1 highlighter
1 individual pack of crayons, colored pencils, or markers (6 or 8 pack)
Note: Additional items may be requested by your child’s classroom teacher throughout the first few weeks of school. Thank you for your understanding and support!
The Community Dinner Project hopes to invite Tucker & Glover parents/guardians to have a conversation, share meaningful stories, good food, and a sense of community. The Community Dinner Project provides an opportunity to meet others from the Tucker and Glover school communities, connect to learn more about each other, and share ideas for how to strengthen our community for our kids to thrive. This project is sponsored by our joint Diversity Committees and is adapted from a nation-wide model, The People’s Supper. We hope to use this opportunity to grow and build our community while celebrating our diversity.
Look for updates for the 2020-21 School Year soon!
