Courtade Elementary School - TCAPS

Our strawberry patch is producing more and more delicious, ripe strawberries every day! Get them while they last! Anyone is welcome to come and lend a hand in the garden. And, when we have things to harvest, you're welcome to take some (except for the root vegetables... we save those for our students to dig up when we come back to school). Mr. Phillips will be there sometime during the day most Tuesdays. We also have a garden Sign Up Genius. You don't have to sign up to come, but if you want to work with someone, you can see who has signed up and when (link below). If you want to be a garden ROAR Model, we still have a pile of mulch that can be spread on the inside border of our pumpkin patch!

We bid farewell to our graduating fifth graders and beloved staff members Mrs. Piatek, Mrs. Dansingburg, Ms. Jane, and Mrs. Myers yesterday. We wish them all the best as they move on from us. We wish everyone in the Courtade community a happy summer! Stay tuned to Facebook for garden news and other summer fun happening with our school.

Remember to drop off any Cougar gear that no longer fits or that you know longer needed before the end of the school year!

We’ll be washing it all and hope to get it back in the hands of other Cougars at a discounted rate next fall ❤️🖤

We jam packed our final Friday of the year! We celebrated our final ROAR Models of the year, our wonderful neighbor, Mr. Rasho, came over to help us plant the pumpkin patch, our fifth graders had an egg drop competition, TADL came for an assembly to kick off the summer reading program, and both of our kindergarten classes had fun presentations for their parents. Have a great weekend! Don't forget Field Day is Monday!

This evening we had the honor and privilege of celebrating Mrs. Herron as she received her Outstanding Educator Award. Mrs. Herron is loved by all and we are incredibly lucky to have her as a member of the Courtade Family. Congratulations, Mrs. Herron, this award is so well deserved! (Video can be found in the comments)🖤♥️🐾

How much can we pack into the second to last Friday of the school year?

We recognized our ROAR Model award winners.

Mrs. Bevier held a special preschool graduation ceremony at Grace McDonald Park.

We welcomed graduating seniors who attended Courtade in elementary school to walk our halls one last time and have some pizza.

We had fun drinking lemonade at the second grade lemonade stand to benefit an awesome cause.

All that, and we may have even snuck in some learning!

The Lemonade Stand is open for business! We are selling lemonade until 3:15, help us raise money for the Kristin Sak Learning Legacy Fund! 🍋🐾
