Talent Elementary School

Talent Elementary School About TES: https://www.phoenix.k12.or.us/domain/1213 In 1850, the first classroom was established in Talent at Fort Wanger - four students were enrolled. Mt.

Vernon School, a 16' X 32' pine log structure, was completed in 1854 and used by the community for social gatherings and Sunday School. During the next 45 years many schools were built, mainly in the form of log cabins or old lumber yard sheds all over Talent. Three of them remain. One is the Talent Community Center, located in downtown Talent. It was completed in 1899 and used as a 1st - 8th grad

e school. In 1911, a three story brick building was built on the site of the present Talent Elementary round building and gym, housing 1st - 12th grades. The round building as we know it was not completed until 1974. Since 1955 Talent Elementary has had 13 principals. The staff continues to be involved with the community. Many of the teachers live within the district and have their children enrolled in our schools. TES has built itself into a strong, happy, safe, and supportive environment for both the students and staff. We have an excellent dual language program at all grade levels. We also have a remarkable Outdoor discovery program that has two multi grades, 1st - 3rd (the youngers) and 4th - 5th ( the olders). The future strength of Talent Elementary School lies in celebrating our unique diversity and continuing to work in partnership with the community, to implement the 21 Century Schools Act.

💙We are SO close to our Jog-a-Thon goals! 🎉🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Our amazing students have already raised $6,637 — WOW!! 🙌

But we need your help to reach the next milestones:🎯 $9,000 = Ms. Lowe gets TAPED to the wall!🎯 $12,000 = Ms. Lowe gets DUNKED in dirty water. Dress her like a banana and serve banana splits to the whole school while singing: I WANT IT THAT WAAAAAY! 😱💦

Let’s keep the momentum going and make this unforgettable for our kids! Every donation counts, big or small.

We have until June 1st, so there’s still time to share, donate, and cheer on our students!

Let’s do this!!!

❤️ ¡Estamos MUY cerca de alcanzar nuestras metas del Jog-a-Thon! 🎉🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Nuestros increíbles estudiantes ya han recaudado $6,637 — ¡WOW! 🙌

Pero necesitamos su ayuda para llegar a los siguientes niveles:
🎯 $9,000 = ¡A la Sra. Lowe la pegamos con cinta a la pared! 😄
🎯 $12,000 = ¡La Sra. Lowe será lanzada al agua sucia, la vestiremos como un plátano y servirá banana splits a toda la escuela mientras canta: ¡I WANT IT THAT WAAAAAY!” 😱💦

¡Sigamos con este gran impulso y hagamos esto inolvidable para nuestros estudiantes! Cada donación cuenta, grande o pequeña.

Tenemos hasta el 1 de junio, así que aún hay tiempo para donar, compartir y apoyar a nuestros estudiantes.

¡Si se puede! 😄

🌟PTS Rising Report:

It's our first one in a while, but you'll want to take a look because it includes some important facts about a recent health scare, an update about the TMS plumbing closure, and a new Loop With the Supt. that covered a lot of important events that recently happened or are just around the corner.
