Homecoming Spirit Week - September 18 22

Winning may be Greek to you, but for us, its


tradition!
Parade: Thursday, 9/21 begins @ 6:30
Game: Friday, 9/22 @ Brodie Field, 7:30
Homecoming Dance: Saturday, 9/23 @ TCHS

Friday 9/22: Show off your Blue Devil Spirit!

Because of Hurricane Irma, our


students have missed at least three days of classroom time. We
are planning for our students to make up one of those days to
keep them from being too far behind. Tuesday, October 10, was
originally scheduled to be a parent/teacher conference day. Instead, teachers
will meet with parents before/after normal school hours for conferences so that
students can be in school on October 10. All students and staff will still have Fall
Break on October 9, but October 10 will now be a full instructional day for
students.

TCHS Peer-Tutoring Program The TCHS Peer-Tutoring


Program is designed to provide tutoring opportunities for
students who are experiencing difficulties in the areas of
Math, Science, CTAE, Foreign Language and Social Studies.
Peer-Tutoring Sessions will be conducted Monday-Thursday
from 3:15 PM to 3:45 PM in the Career Center in the guidance office. Please
contact your school counselor if you are interested in setting up tutoring
sessions or becoming a peer-tutor. Students requesting services would need to
do so a few days in advance due to scheduling procedures. Students providing
tutoring services will earn community service hours.
