John G. Tower Elementary

These fine John Tower students (who are ALL smiles)cashed in their dojo points to help Officer Deason this afternoon and be his assistants!

5th Graders Nemo and Julian cashed in their dojo points and chose to be Mrs. Cluley's PE helper!

Tower Unified athletes and buddies bonded this morning with our new equipment, courtesy of Special Olympics Texas!

Trenton earned enough Bark Points to be the office helper on this very busy Friday morning. He helped sign visitors into the building, assisted with mail distribution, ran copies, and made sure our administrators received important messages.
Thank you, Trenton, for all your hard work. You were a huge help today!

Reminder: No School on Veterans Day
There will be no school on Tuesday, November 11th in observance of Veterans Day.
Classes will resume on Wednesday, November 12th.

John Tower Elementary is very fortunate to serve many military families. We consider it an honor and a privilege. Today, under the direction of our amazing music teacher Mrs. Jill Vivio, our students honored our veterans in patriotic songs. The children's happy voices brought joy and honor to our Veterans, and made our families proud! "A Veteran is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check, made payable to the 'United States of America,' for an amount up to and including their life." - author unknown

Anticipation is running high for the Veterans Day program next Monday! Mrs. Spring and her art students prepared a most beautiful and appropriate display in the hallway. Be sure to check it out as you walk to the cafeteria on Monday! Thank you, Mrs. Vivio for all of your very hard work!

Mrs. Vivio's class explored how sound is created by vibrations today! Because we can’t usually see sound waves, students conducted an experiment to make them visible. Using tuning forks and a bowl of water, students learned how vibrations travel through different materials. Some students discovered that hitting the tuning fork harder created stronger vibrations—so strong that they caused water to splash out of the bowl! What an amazing lesson, Mrs. Vivio!

"Movement with Moms" is next Monday and Wednesday! We look forward to seeing all moms!

Kindly send in your military photos to Mrs. Vivio! Thank you so much!
