Taylor County Middle

As a reminder, Aug 20, we will have Open House. 3:30-5:00 for 5th grade and 6th-8th from 5:30-7:00. Walking tacos, candy and drinks will be sold along with Zules. Looking forward to seeing everyone soon!

As we prepare for the new school year, we wanted everyone to be familiar with the new lower paved lot. All traffic will enter on the right hand side and drive all the way around to lane 1 and line up accordingly in each row. All traffic for student pickup will start in the lower parking lot. No parking behind the school will be allowed for afternoon student pick up. Traffic from the lower lot will pull out @ 3:00 to begin up the hill and line up behind the school. No parking in the front of the school will be allowed for student drop off or student pickup in the AM or the PM. AM drop off will be in the back lot behind the school only and will begin at 7:15. Your cooperation and understanding will be greatly appreciated. Here's to a great year!

Additional improvements on the hill. Locker rooms have been painted and new glass basketball boards for the gym.

TCMS Cheer Tryout Information ❤️🖤

At the end of the year, we package up our locks and prepare them for the next year. Our 8th grade locks will go to the incoming 5th grade students. When sorting them today, we came across a very special message that someone wrote for whoever will receive their lock. We just felt the need to share it with everyone. Thank you former 8th grade student for your kind words of wisdom. ❤️🖤🩶

Great news, Taylor County families!
As school supply displays start popping up in stores, here’s something to keep in mind: you don’t need to buy school supplies. 🖍️✂️📓

Thanks to the continued generosity of our community and the support of the Taylor County Schools Levy, we are able to provide all the necessary school supplies for all of our enrolled students.

That means no long shopping lists—just a strong start to the school year for everyone!

Thank you for investing in our students’ success!
Let's make this school year the best one yet! See you in class!

From Mr. Mapel: “Congratulations to Hadlee Gregory for her 2nd place in Prepared Public Speaking. Her topic was on Tree of Heaven. Hadlee also competed in Conduct of Chapter Meeting. They only award for top 3. We didn't place in that contest, but I am proud of how all 7 Taylor County Middle FFA members have performed in both contests.” Gooooo Knights! ❤️🖤
