Parents, this is your senior's last chance to take a senior picture to be in the yearbook. We currently have 144 seniors without a photo. Only those who have an appointment with BPI already scheduled will be excused from taking senior pictures on Monday. BPI is booked solid and will not have openings prior to our deadline!! These photos are used for the yearbook, and scholarship announcements; they will also be on the jumbo screen during graduation. There is a $25 sitting fee, but you do get proofs. They take both tux/drape pics and cap & gown pics. BPI provides everything needed. #BTTY #4theT

Ms. Vance's Early Childhood Education II class is learning how the evolution of the computer has changed the face of education. As part of the lesson, students visited Dr. Busbin to learn about the Apple IIe in her room and view a few pieces of technology history. They even had the opportunity to see the historic computer run Oregon Trail. They have gained extensive knowledge of information storage through the years and a new perspective on the field of education and technology. #4theT #BTTY #CTAEdelivers #oregontrail #AppleHistory #gadoe

Constitution Day is celebrated each year to commemorate, September 17, 1787 when our Founding Fathers signed the most influential document in American history: the United States Constitution.

Read aloud is such an important part of our day! For a fun twist on our normal read-aloud, Haley Hooks brought in a projector from her Early Childhood class that read and projected the book on the ceiling!

Haley is a practicum student in Hope Vance’s Early Childhood Education pathway at TCHS. She attends practicum in Ashly Webster’s 1st-grade classroom at Matt Wilson Elementary. #BTTY #4theT
