The next Tuckahoe PTA General Meeting is Thursday, April 28th at 7:30PM, via Zoom. Join guest speakers Sarah Loader & Vanessa O’Friel of Prep Academy Tutors for their presentation, “Executive Functioning Skills Defined and Supported.”
Per the PTA by-laws, during the meeting we will vote on the current PTA budget and minutes from the last PTA general meeting. Both documents are provided here for your reference. Participants are asked to review these in advance of the meeting so that the PTA membership can vote on their adoption.
Executive functioning skills are brain-based management skills required for all individuals to effectively pay attention, plan and prioritize tasks, solve problems, think flexibly, and self-regulate. These key skills include: organization, planning and prioritizing, task initiation and time management, working memory, and metacognition.

Please send donations in an envelope marked: Teacher Luncheon Attn: PTA Community & School Relations. Kindly return to TMS, THS or your WEC Classroom Teacher by April 8th.

The Tuckahoe PTA Student Support Committee invites you to join us for a captivating discussion including three professionals with ADHD, Autism and Dyslexia as they relay their personal struggles, diagnoses, and self-awareness to help families better understand their children’s struggles and frustrations. The panel will discuss their personal experiences in finding practical strategies and coping mechanisms, and how that insight helps them understand and provide a voice for their clients. Thank you to Student Support co-chairs Giulia Frasca and Shea Scanlon Lomma for organizing this important event.
