iPad Charging
Please ensure that your child is plugging in their iPad when they get home and charging it overnight. We have had an issue with a large group of learners in each class coming to school with their iPad dead. This makes charging at the same time hard and distancing even harder. We would love your help with iPads arriving at school charged. 



HEADPHONES!
We have lots of kiddos who have lost/broken headphones. Please make sure that your child has a working pair of headphones for school. 

A Note from Kinder and 1st - Coppell Lions Club

Kindergarten and First Grade will be working with the Coppell Lions Club ​to coordinate a food and toy drive at Town Center. This will help to provide food and toys for more than 100 Coppell families during the holidays. ​We'd love for our learners in grades K-5 to bring canned food items and/or a new, unwrapped toy to donate starting December 1st through December 15th.  If you are a face-to-face learner, you may drop your items by the TCE ​Giving ​Tree in the front of the school​, and canned foods can be put in the boxes at the end of each hallway Virtual learners may call the front office ​at 214-496-7800 to make arrangements to drop off your donation ​in the front loop during school hours. THANK YOU for your support! 



Town Center Yearbooks

Our 2020-2021 Town Center Yearbook is now available for purchase. The cost is $25, and they will arrive in the spring. Click here to place your order. **Please note that the yearbook cost Is NOT INCLUDED in the TCE Trail Pass.



Spirit Night at JC's Burger Bar

Next Friday, November 20th, JC's Burger Bar in Coppell is donating 20% of their full-day sales from Town Center families and friends to our school. Whether you dine in or pick up (including curbside pick-up), as long as you mention that you are there supporting Town Center, your purchase will qualify. So, whether it is lunch, dinner, or a snack in between, we hope you can join us in supporting Town Center and great food!

Reminder: CISD Fall 2020 Family Survey

CISD relies heavily on the voice of our families to help us validate our practices and seek input in areas that need to be improved. The district encourages you to use this avenue to share your voice in our Fall 2020 Family Survey, which can be found at go.coppellisd.com/familyfall2020. Your feedback will help us evaluate our performance and guide our work for the remainder of the school year. In addition, this survey plays a crucial role in our Community-Based Accountability System or CBAS. CBAS uses multiple pillars to measure success, and the more family participation in this survey, the better we can know how we are doing and where we can improve.

***IMPORTANT***

Reminder from Dr. Applegate Regarding Zoom Logins

Please ask all learners to sign into Zoom with their @g.coppellisd.com account through the SSO button.


We are needing to pull guest access to our Zoom meetings (due to safety) and learners will not be able to access your Zoom meetings. We have recently learned that logging into Zoom using the Google Button doesn’t actually transfer their account into the district enterprise account. They HAVE to go through the SSO option in order to be counted in the CISD domain. We believe this may be the reason we still have approximately 6,000 learners that have not transitioned their account.


If you see a learner with (Guest) next to their name in your Zoom participant’s list, this means that they are NOT signed into their @g.coppellisd.com account in our Coppell Zoom domain and need to add their account to our domain by signing in with SSO. When you see learners with (Guest) please share the following help documentation with each of them.



FREE Meals Through December!
