Weekly Message
I hope everyone had a great week!
Huge thank you to our junior class! SAT testing was Wednesdays, and we had a 100% participation rate. The test day went well, with the majority of students on time, with a charged laptop. Fun fact: the State of Indiana not only tracks our SAT scores, but they also have a minimum participation requirement.
Friday was the end of the 3rd nine weeks! You may want to check your student's grades, and reflect on the work that needs to be done from now to the end of the year. The third quarter grade makes up 40% of a students Semester Grade. As a reminder, it is the semester grade that goes on the official transcript. (Click Here for a visual of how semester grades are calculated) Grades will be OFFICIALLY finalized and posted March 12th.
Congratulations to the boys basketball team for winning their third straight sectional championship! They will play for a regional championship on Saturday, March 9th @1pm. Lapel is hosting. You can find ticket information here. There are no cash sales at the door.
Congratulations to the Tipton Blue Devil Guard! They've had a great season of growth, which earned them the chance to compete at state finals this Saturday. The group takes the stage at 5:01 at Franklin Central High School. Tickets and event information can be found here.

Early Release Survey
TCSC is looking at the possibility of an early release day to help support teacher collaboration and professional development. The benefit to Tipton High School would include teachers in the same content area (i.e. Science, Math, etc.) would be able to meet during this time; which would free up out master schedule.
By having a more flexible schedule, we can continue to offer students the autonomy over their schedule and to have the option to choose their classes.
We are looking for community input about a possible Early Release. Click Here to Provide Feedback
