Hello Trailwood!
Here’s to October! I hope this new month finds you well.
Thank you to all that were able to attend our first general PTA meeting. The turnout, conversation and participation was wonderful.
Though our schedules and events look different this semester, there are still ways to get involved. Please be sure to check out the entire newsletter for a whole slew of information on exciting things going on for Trailwood. From PTA memberships to Auction updates. Dining partners to new Spirit Wear. There are so many wonderful ways to participate and show support for our community.
As we transition into the hybrid learning model, an anticipated Halloween party may be scheduled differently. Be on the lookout for communication on grade level specific dates.
Check out upcoming important dates below. Looking forward to “seeing” you for our next general meeting on October 13th at 7pm. The link for that virtual meeting will be sent out closer to that date.
As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you!
Go Thunderbirds!

As Trailwood prepares for a hybrid model of in-person learning on October 5th  thru October 12th, we are asking parents to start performing this COVID-19 Daily Assessment for Students with their child each morning. If your child answers yes to any of the information AND it is a new symptom unrelated to a previous condition, please keep them home and call your school nurse, Catie Donovan at 913-993-5602, or email her at catiedonovan@smsd.org
Thermometers
If your child is signed up for in-person learning, a thermometer along with this COVID-19 Daily Self-Assessment will be sent home with the youngest child on their first day of school.  Please contact Nurse Catie if you need one before their first day of in-person learning. 
Please take time to read the Back to School Safety Tips link that goes over the 3 W’s and the 3 C’s.  These are truly the keys to a successful school year.  Thank you so much for doing your part to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
