Hello Teller Families!
As we prepare for the 2024-2025 school year, our goal is to have an accurate student count so we can plan accordingly.
Whether you are planning to return to Teller or not, we are asking each family to complete ONE Google form by Thursday, January 11th, 2024 at noon.
LINK TO THE GOOGLE FORM HERE (GMAIL is preferred)
We value transparency and have always done our best to ensure our families have the most up to date information about Teller. With that being said, we want to make you aware of a significant schedule shift that is coming to Teller for the 2024-2025 school year. Our bell schedule will be staying the same Mondays through Thursdays. School will start at 7:40 a.m. and end at 2:40 p.m. Fridays will become an early release day with school starting at 7:40 a.m. and ending at 12:00 p.m. (noon) every week. Below is an overview of Teller's bell schedule for the 2024-2025 school year:
- Monday - 7:40 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
- Tuesday - 7:40 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
- Wednesday - 7:40 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
- Thursday - 7:40 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.
- Friday - 7:40 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (noon)
Early release days offer valuable opportunities for teachers to engage in professional development, plan lessons, and conduct data analysis. During these focused sessions, our teachers will attend professional development to refine their teaching skills and stay current with educational methodologies and technologies. The dedicated time also allows for collaborative efforts, as our teachers can work with colleagues to share best practices, align curriculum, and discuss strategies for improving student outcomes. The district does provide planning days, however, those days have set agendas for teachers and do not allow them to plan for their students and class. In short, these half-days will be a crucial component of ongoing professional growth and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement for our teachers.
In order to support Teller families, with childcare, we have confirmed that Discovery Link will be offered every Friday from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Additionally, after school enrichment classes will be offered starting at noon.
Registration for both Discovery Link and after school enrichment will begin this spring. Please look for additional information about registration information in the coming months.
Please complete the Google form by the due date of Thursday, January 11th, 2024 at noon.

THANK YOU!
