About goodt

Hello and thank you for visiting my blog. My name is Tara Good and I am grateful for the privilege of teaching your child reading, writing and social studies this year. A mom of 5 myself, with my oldest in college, it is a privilege to be part of the Roughneck family. I have taught fourth grade in both Duncanville and Mesquite, taught ESL for Kilgore College, and am a graduate of Texas A & M Commerce. I count it an honor to partner with you to help your child grow and excel this year. I am looking forward to learning more about your student and am excited about encouraging ALL students to do their best! Thank you for entrusting your greatest gift, your student, to me.

News you can use for this week…

…NO spelling words this week due to the Veterans Day Program.

Remember, you are allowed to check your child out after the program at the high school if you choose to, however, I need the signed permission form from the bottom of the music sheet. If you need another sheet please just have your child ask for one.

From Mrs. Fuller regarding the program: November 11th, 11:30! Wear red, white, and/or blue.

Field Trip update!

Field Trip Reminders:

Our field trip is this Thursday, October 20th.  We will load the buses at 8:10. Please make sure your child is at school on time.

The cost per child is $6 cash.  Please turn this into your child’s teacher by Wednesday, October 19th.

If you did not sign up for a cafeteria lunch, please make sure your child has a sack lunch and drink with their name on it.

Parents are allowed to come to the Oil Museum and walk with their child only while they tour the museum with their homeroom.

If you plan on coming, you MUST come to the office and sign in through our RAPTOR system and get a visitor tag before going to the Oil Museum.  At the Oil Museum you will be required to pay $6 for your admission.
