TITAN BUDDIES – Gr. 2, 6 & 7
The second graders met with their seventh and sixth grade buddies this week. They were introduced to their new buddies and completed a friend survey together. We watched a video about starting a kindness chain. Afterwards, the older buddies helped the younger buddies write a sentence on a strip of construction paper about something they could do to demonstrate the character trait of kindness. We connected all of the strips together to make a kindness chain to display at CSP. We encourage parents to continue this important character discussion at home.

TCA CORE VALUES &
TITAN'S CREED
TITAN’S CREED: Parents may find the Titan’s Creed link posted in the left menu of this newsletter webpage.
TCA CORE VALUES: Core Values serve as a compass and guide for keeping TCA on its originally intended course in the present and future.
The Core Values are represented via parts of a tree: the Roots, Trunk, Branches, Leaves and Fruit.
ROOTS
We believe that parents are ultimately responsible for the education of their children.
- We value a staff that recognizes the honor, gravity, and responsibility that has been entrusted to them by parents and respects the domain of the home in areas such as sex education and religious upbringing.
- We value parents who treat staff as our most important asset by respecting their authority in the school domain, and teaching their children to do the same.
- We will be counter-cultural where the culture encourages indulgence and will hold higher standards of civility and decency than are typical in the culture at large.
