By TEF Leadership Team We hope everyone in our wonderful community had a joyous holiday season -- the TEF leadership team is again working hard on behalf of Tooele County School District’s students and staff!

This year the annual Career and Technical Education Open House will be held at three different locations. To start, Tooele High School will host the event Monday, January 8th from 5 to 7 p.m.
(By Ed Dalton) In educational foundation work, many people measure the success of an endeavor or the organization by the amount of money they raise. That is not a good way of looking at it. Of course, without adequate financial resources no foundation can survive. The Tooele Education Foundation has for the past seven years increased its monetary position through donations each year.
The Board of Education public meeting will begin at 7 p.m. at the school district building. The Tooele County School District building is located at 92 Lodestone Way, Tooele.
The first day for students at the new Sterling Elementary School building will be Jan. 2, 2018. That evening there will be an open house starting at 6 p.m. The open house and ribbon cutting is open to the public. Students who attend Sterling Elementary will begin Winter Break Dec. 20th, 2017. This is one day earlier than the rest of the school district. This provides teachers and staff an extra day to unpack in the new school.
In Tooele County School District, our community expects timely communications, especially during safety concerns, like inclement weather. Because each weather-related call is based on current and forecasted conditions, we often publish a final decision early in the morning, rather than the night before. With winter conditions uncertain and further observations necessary, our crews start evaluating road conditions at midnight. Decisions to close the district are often made by 5:30 a.m.
While anyone can proactively check tooeleschools.org for updates, or watch for local media reports, below are options identified as fast and reliable methods for finding out when a district-wide delay or closure is announced.
The Student Health and Risk Prevention (SHARP) survey data report is a profile of Tooele County School district. This information is helpful as the schools put prevention programs and strategies in place.
