Message from the Principal
Dear Parents,
Patriots Day presented by the fourth grade, took place in their classrooms and in the Forum on Thursday. Students representing Paul Revere, George Washington, Ben Franklin, Betsy Ross and many, many more patriots gave formal presentations about their hero, while dressed in the appropriate costume. Tri-folds with drawings, maps, famous quotes and other pertinent information enhanced their projects. During the afternoon exhibits in the Forum, the students lined up along the sides so that visitors come by and hear their speech. I was thrilled with the number of parents, grandparents and other grade level classes who came by to take in these presentations. This is just another great example of the exciting way students learn at TCA. Please take time to enjoy the patriot pictures and the end of this newsletter.
Sincerely,
Don Stump
