Dear TCJHS Parents and extended family members,

February has been a great month, and spring is undoubtedly on the horizon! I want to thank you for coming to the Parent Teacher Conference on behalf of the entire TCJHS staff. Strong communities and partnerships are crucial, and we all value the chance to celebrate your child’s accomplishments. I appreciate you coming.

I would like to share with you the upcoming events as we enter the month of March:

1. Baseball, Softball, and Track and Field try out start on Monday, March 3, 2025
2. Benchmark 3 Testing for 6th, 7th, & 8th grades. Review calendar
3. AASA Testing will be done in April. Please review the following dates:
a. AASA Writing Testing on April 1, 2, & 3.
b. AASA Writing Testing make up on April 4.
c. AASA English Language Arts Part I and II on April 8, 9, & 10.
d. AASA English Language Arts make up on April 11.
e. AASA Math Part I and II on April 15, 16, & 17.
f. AASA Math and English Language Arts make up on April 22 to April 24.

This is a reminder that April is our Assessment month, and it is very important that your child be present every day of testing. We appreciate that the month of April you limit your check-outs during assessments. It is important to note that once a student starts the test, he or she will need to complete it by the end of the day.

I want to encourage all our parents to continue working with their child with homework and staying on top of their grades and attendance. Please remember that the arrival time is 7:10 am and we encourage all students to follow this time to ensure their safety with proper supervision.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
