Thank you for allowing your child to become a part of our Eagle Family. We have had an amazing first quarter of a "First Class Experience" and we are looking forward to the Quarter 2 experience. We will keep our focus on improving the lives of our students and giving them skills necessary to be successful in high school and beyond. Please know that you can come to me with any questions or concerns, and my door is always open.

The "Student Handbook" session was very engaging during this great week of learning, but we would like our parents and students to reference the handbook throughout the school year. TMS Student Handbook 22-23.pdf
