Picking Up a Sick Child - Let our nurses help!
To that end, please encourage your child that if they ever have a health issue, please come to the clinic at the TMS office first! We will be able to provide support for all sorts of health-related issues, and will make sure to call home if your child has a fever, is throwing up, or another significant health issue. If a kid needs to head home, we will give you a call to let you know!
One Last Reminder - ID's and PowerSchool Contacts
Thank you for your support during iReady Diagnostic Testing! For your knowledge...
For your knowledge, iReady diagnostic testing is used extensively by our teachers. It provides feedback on particular areas of struggle in order to help teachers group students for interventions during homeroom and in class, and is highly useful for our Special Education department to help set and assess goals and provided targeted support.
The long story short - they are long tests, but they are valuable to improve teaching and learning at TMS every day! If you ever have questions about testing, reach out to Mr. Ayars at the TMS Office!
