Events & Announcements

We pray that the break has been filled with all of your favorite things and that you find yourselves refreshed and renewed in the way of the Lord! We are looking forward to the rich and rewarding semester ahead and can’t wait to welcome the students back into the classroom.

Here are some updates from our TCS High School community:

Mrs. Grubbs

We are so very excited to welcome Mrs. Grubbs back to the classroom from maternity leave.

Mr. Hilliard

Due to an unexpected family move, Mr. Hilliard will not be returning to TCS. While we are sad he is leaving us, we are pleased to announce that Mr. Nicholas Yeakley will be joining the TCS team of staff in the History Department. All the way from the great state of Texas, Mr. Yeakley was hired on at the close of the first semester and moved to Georgia over the break. Mr. Yeakley has previous experience teaching high school students as well as students at the collegiate level. He is excited to call Georgia home and to step back into the private, Christian school classroom setting.

Always Forward

As we look ahead and seek to engage with the opportunities and challenges that we are faced with today, we will press on to create an environment for our students and faculty to pursue their passions as we position ourselves: always forward. We continue to be dedicated to making investments that strengthen our community and in doing so we are pleased to launch our time to “GO”. Each Bible class will spend one day serving at community mission partnerships and other local organizations at the start of the semester. More details will be shared with students and parents from their specific Bible class.

For Seniors Only

We are excited to kick off the final semester of the senior year! We will host a day of focus starting out with worship and a message, then conclude the day with some fun and fellowship together at, Main Event! Wednesday, January 5, 2022

Counseling Department Dates:

Second semester schedules are viewable in Blackbaud by clicking “Calendar” and selecting a date range in 2nd Semester (i.e. January).

Students, if you would like to change a course listed on your schedule for the Spring Semester, please complete this form. Link: https://forms.gle/tVDxAtMCsA5b2ShX7

If you are requesting to take a course for which you were not recommended, you will likely need to complete an appeal process. NOTE: Your schedule may have adjusted from Fall to Spring even without a change request, and it may not be possible to have the exact same schedule you had in the Fall. NOTE: Only students who want a change need to complete this form.

PSAT Score Information

PSAT scores are available! Information about accessing scores can be found here: https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/psat-nmsqt-psat-10/scores/getting-scores

chromebooks

Reminder! The only devices permitted on campus are school issued Chromebooks. Students are not permitted to bring their personal devices to school. Please complete an IT request form (linked here: tcslions.topdesk.net) for any non-school issued devices to be approved for campus use. NOTE: All devices must be approved or the students will have the non-approved device taken up for the day and they will be issued a device to use temporarily.

LUNCH DELIVERIES CHANGE!

At this time, we are no longer allowing students to order lunches for delivery to the school. Students should plan to have an alternative plan for lunches such as bringing their lunch in the morning or purchasing through our current catering service. Unfortunately, this popular practice of ordering for school delivery poses a number of unnecessary issues including safety and traffic concerns.

JEANS & Dress Code

As a reminder, students will be permitted to wear jeans (blue or black - no rips, holes, tears) with any dress code approved collared shirt on any day. All other dress code guidelines will remain the same.

Dress Down Fridays
Each Friday, students are permitted to wear jeans or usual dress code pants/shorts/skirts with TCS branded spiritwear to include t-shirts.

BOYS – no pierced jewelry is allowed on campus or at school-related functions.
GIRLS – pierced jewelry is limited to earrings with a maximum of two per ear (no nose piercings).
Tattoos of any nature cannot be exposed on campus or at school-related functions.
Hats are not permitted to be worn on campus.

in the classroom

Freshman Bible finished the year strong as 130 students became the teacher. The final assignment of the year was called “You are the teacher” and each student worked on an array of real life skills while reading and growing from the book of Genesis. The assignment required students to outline chapters (reading analysis), formulate questions (reading prioritizing), and produce fundamental lessons specifically applied to a high school student’s daily life (reading relevance). Once this individual lesson plan was produced, each student assembled in groups of 4 to share their findings and discuss the most important lessons (collaboration and assessment). Finally, each group selected two lessons and two speakers who were tasked with addressing and teaching the class (public speaking and public faith promotion). Here are a couple pics of our wonderful image-bearing students in action.
