Here is a reminder of all TCS Parent-Teacher Conferences dates and times. Update: TCMS is Nov. 6th.
Two of the many projects from Mrs Tonkery’s ELA-7 classes study of “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.”
Yesterday and today the entire 8th grade participated in “Book Tasting”. Approximately 165 students had a seat at the table in Mrs. Vassil's “Restaurant”. On top of tasting 5 genres of books, they also helped me celebrate National Down Syndrome Awareness Month by meeting and speaking to her daughter, Kaitlyn. Thanks to everyone at TCMS for being so enthusiastic and for our librarian, Mrs. Conti's, help! ❤️🖤

8th grade English students learned poetic devices while listening to and reading Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven". The tricky language is much less spooky when broken into smaller sections!
