The Big Thank You!
Recently, TRMS students and staff participated in The Bert Show's Big Thank You, an annual campaign to send a letter of gratitude to soldiers deployed outside the United States. The following email was received by Ms. Graff and shows how much these letters mean to the service men and women. Thank you to all who participated!
hello sir or ma'am,
my name is cody, and im currently deployed overseas with the army. I just received a care package from The Bert Show, it was filled with hand written letters from a lot of kids and adults. a number of them came from your school, and listed your email address.
I wanted to take a minute to say thank you very much! thank you for participating in this program and thank you for supporting us over here. it means a lot to read all the letters sent, and while I cant respond to each one individually, I hope you will pass along my sentiment and appreciation to your students and faculty.
thank you so much, and happy holidays to all.
sincerely,
cody

From the Clinic
The Coltillion of Alpharetta
Last chance to register!!! The Cotillion of Alpharetta is coming January 2018!!!!!
We are excited to start our classes on Sunday, January 7at The Metropolitan Club! Come have fun with us while learning dance and etiquette!
This is not your grandmother’s cotillion! The Seventh Graders will learn basic ballroom dancing and popular dance (Shag, Swing, Free Style, Line and Slow), as well as many important social and professional skills the students will need to know now and throughout their lives. The Seventh Grade class will culminate in a Parents Showcase displaying the Program as parents observe all their child has learned. Students will also enjoy a 50's Party filled with games, contests, dancing and pizza!
For Eighth Graders, the classes will review the basics taught in year one, and the students will learn many new dances including Latin, Swing and Hustle. An extensive Table Manners segment will further develop your child’s social graces. Dating, interviews and making conversation will also be covered. The Eighth Grade Program will culminate in a Dinner Dance that brings all of the students’ new skills into practice. New students are always welcome in 8th grade.
You can expect your child to gain confidence in our classes, and learn how to greet, shake hands and converse with adults—an all-important skill as the dating years approach. They will also discuss social media etiquette! But most of all, your teen will have fun!
