Today, TCMS has started back an old tradition of “Exploratories!” Teachers were in charge of conducting a club of their choice and students were able to choose what they were interested in. Some examples of clubs we have are cross stitch, visual literacy, building with duct tape, origami, Home Economics, Pep club, and many more! We hope to run these clubs for the remainder of the year during Homeroom time for students to pick up new hobbies, skills, and interests! Our teachers and students had a great day with this today! Be on the lookout for more information about each club your student has chosen. Remember, its ALWAYS a great day to be a Knight!
Gloomy day but our new, beautiful flags are flying high thanks to our custodial staff! They are always willing to go the extra mile everyday and night including after our dance yesterday. They are a well oiled machine!
Congratulations to our Pi day winners from each lunch period. Each winner received a $10 gift card to Dollar General. Congrats to Harper Ross for guessing 40 digits correctly. With only a few days notice, we are very impressed with these kids.

To celebrate Pi Day and to challenge our students, the admin team at TCMS is sponsoring a PI Digit Memorization Contest during each lunch time on Tuesday 3.14! The student who memorizes the most digits of PI gets a prize!
