We’re excited to kick off our TCMS Employee Spotlight series! 🌟 Throughout the school year, we’ll be highlighting the amazing people who help make TCMS such a special place.
Take a moment to get to know the faces behind our Bulldog family! 🐾
Mrs. Dykes’s Social Studies and ELA classes recently took time to learn about and reflect on the events of September 11, 2001. Students read passages about 9/11 and completed comprehension questions that encouraged both understanding and higher-order thinking.
As part of the lesson, each student completed two sections of this collaborative “Never Forget” poster. ❤️🤍💙
Through this activity, students worked together to commemorate this important day in our nation’s history and honor the lives lost on September 11.
📣🐾 Coming Up This Thursday at TCMS!
Don’t forget—our Annual Title I Parent Resource Night is happening this Thursday!
📅 Thursday, September 17
⏰ 4:30–6:00 PM
📍 TCMS
Come meet and connect with your student’s teachers, learn about valuable resources, and find out ways to help your student stay connected and successful this school year.
We hope to see our TCMS families there! 🐾
