Announcements:
We are in need of extra clothing in our classrooms, specifically we need more for boys now. If you have clothes in a size 3-6 or child's small/extra small, especially PANTS, we would welcome your donation! Also, if we have lent your child clothes, please send them back so we can replenish our supply.
Please label your child's jackets and water bottles. Many kid's items look similar and we want to make sure your child's belongings go home with them!
If your student is absent for any reason, please email the teacher and copy sierra.salter@gcisd.net and elissa.faught@gcisd.net. This is our Attendance Clerk and our school nurse here at OC Taylor. If your child rides the bus, please also call transportation at (817) 251-5592 to let them know.
