Events & Announcements


Those who know the Lord and delight themselves in Him and His Word of truth, will receive the desire of their heart.

As believers who read, mark, learn, receive, and focus day and night on the truth of HIS word, we  do not become entangled in the ways of the world. Those who search the Scriptures daily are not only wise, but truly blessed of the Lord: "For blessed is the man who delights in the law of the Lord and on his law meditates day and night." He will be like a tree securely planted by streams of life-giving water, which brings forth much fruit in its season, to the glory of God.


National Hispanic Heritage Month

Sept 15th - Oct 15th. 

To celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, Student Council members, Brianna Hernandez and Michelina Ryan, introduced five latin dances during lunch last week. The lunchroom was full of laughter and smiles as eight students, nominated by their peers, paired up and learned the Bachata, Salsa, Merengue, Samba, and Folklorico. Teachers served as judges, and it was quite entertaining to watch. The pair that won were 10th graders, Sienna Johnson and Henry Zueck. Following their win, they did a dance off with gifted dancers junior, Isaiah Ware and Marketing, Communications & Events Director, Oscar Camejo. Henry and Sienna did a great job looking just as experienced as them. They earned their FREE Meal to Willy’s sponsored by Student Council, and all participants and Student Council members involved were given a favorite Latin American food- wafers. During lunchtime on Friday we will continue celebrating the Hispanic culture as we play Mas Tierra and bust a pinata.


Abby’s Angels

National Teen Driver Safety Week - October 16-22nd and we are joining forces again with Abby’s Angels Foundation for a purposeful week of awareness. On Monday, 10/17 we will be modifying the schedule to allow time for an assembly presentation by Daquarius “Q” Greene who will be sharing his impactful story with our high school population. 

During this emphasis week we would like for students to wear the following colors in dress code attire (collared shirts). Friday will be the only dress down day where students may wear a pink shirt of any kind (short sleeve and long sleeve t-shirts accepted). If you choose not to participate, please be sure that you are in the regular dress code.

Assembly Schedule


Discipleship 201

Our school is dedicated to preparing today's students to impact tomorrow's world. A major part of that preparation is educating them on the depths and riches of the Love of God. This equips our students to carry the gospel into whatever future endeavors they have. We're excited to introduce our newest way to equip students for that future, Discipleship 201. Discipleship 201 will give students an opportunity to dive deeper and pursue the name of God through service projects, leadership opportunities, and added assignments. Each grade will have their own requirements and goals which will be defined by their grade-level Bible teacher. Discipleship 201 students will be celebrated at Honors Night and given a cord to wear at graduation. (Students who participate multiple years will receive multiple items) This program is optional for all students. If interested, please talk to your grade-level Bible Teacher or email kc.lorow@tcslions.org with any questions.
