TSA Elementary School

The month of December is an extra special time at Tattnall Square Academy. Our Tattnall Holiday traditions such as the Lower School Musical, the Band Concert and especially Kid’s Yule Love ensure that Christmas spirit is in abundance.

The season also brings us more great news.

Mrs. Christie guidance program for Lower School this year is called ” Giraffe Heroes”. Heroes are people who “stick their necks out for the common good of others.” They traveled to giraffe country to learn about heroes and read “Stan and Bea’s Tall Tales.” Our third grade students created illustrations for the stories they read and their drawings were selected by the National Giraffe Heroes Organization to be featured on their website. The illustrations will bring to life these tales to students all across the world. Stop by the elementary school building to see Tattnall’s own giraffes! These students have been recognized for “sticking their necks out” at Tattnall Square Academy and their pictures are located outside Mrs. Christie’s office and also on the second floor.

Also, Mrs. Laura Green, 5^th grade teacher at TSA, submitted a recipe that was selected to be served in the dining halls at University of Georgia to over 8000 students. The recipe was her now famous Chicken Parmesan. Mrs. Green was a guest of honor along with the other recipe winners and was treated to a sampling of all the recipes in Athens. Her Chicken Parmesan will be served in the UGA dining halls this year and next. Laura’s daughter Whitley is a freshman at UGA.

December brings to a close a great first semester for the Tattnall Square Lower School. Much has been achieved but as always there is more to be accomplished. We look forward to our lasting partnership with you, the parents, as we continue to guide our students towards achievement and success.

I look forward to seeing you in 2009 for what will truly be an outstanding year. From my true family at home and also my family at school, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
