The menu includes Colorado Chicken Taco Bowl with romaine lettuce, baby carrots, cucumber, tomatoes, corn salsa, charro beans, peaches and watermelon.   If your child brings their lunch from home, help us celebrate by packing a Colorado product.  Eat healthy and be Colorado proud!

Fire Safety with Third Grade

Ms. King’s 3rd grade students participated in a fire safety presentation sponsored by the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority.  Colleen Potton, Life Safety Educator, shared information with students about the importance of creating a fire escape plan, practicing the escape route, and designating a meeting place outside the home to make sure everyone has made it out safely.  Children, aged 12 and below have the opportunity for free ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery once their family has created a plan, practiced the plan, taken a photo at the designated meeting spot, and emailed the photo to Colleen.  Colleen provided instructions to all students.  Thanks to all students for participating.  They were an excellent audience! All third graders at TTE will have the chance to hear Colleen's presentation.

Thank you to Mrs. Halvas for sharing her personal story to all of our students during our jump roping events.  Your message is important for our students to hear!
