Community Letter Writing Session

Hosted by: Talawanda Community Advocacy for Public Education, 

Ms. Carla Blackmar and Dr. Pepper Stetler

Sunday, March 26, 2023 at 4PM

 

Link: https://miamioh.zoom.us/j/8152897583

 

Description: T-CAPE and a group of concerned citizens are excited to announce the first of what we hope will be many Community Letter Writing Sessions. Join Dr. Pepper Stetler and Ms. Carla Blackmar for a fun, short, but also informative session on March 26th at 4PM on writing letters to our elected representatives. We will have pre-developed talking points, facts, research, and contact information available for attendees. The idea is for you to write your letter while on the Zoom call and ask questions as needed. Please note all the efforts to influence our elected officials non-partisan and separate from TSD. Public education is a non-partisan issue and exists for the good of society.

Educating & Preparing Students for Life!

 

The Oxford Lions Club Sight Saving Committee is collecting used eyeglasses, as well as glasses cases! These glasses and cases are donated all over the world to children who are in need. The lenses and frames from the donated glasses are modified to meet individual children's eye needs. Every year, Oxford Lions Club collects and sends 900-plus pairs of glasses to children in need!

 

 

Please send any glasses donations to Betsy Beaton (Marshall Elementary School) or Shaunna Tafelski (Board Office) by the beginning of April. We are happy to swing by and pick up glasses donations or they can be dropped off at Marshall or the Board Office. Thank you for supporting the Oxford Lions Club! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please be sure to have a photo ID with you when you plan to enter the building during the day.  This applies to visits and when picking up your child early.
