Dear TCS Families,

We want to make you all aware that there was a minor incident involving Linda’s bus this morning on the route to school. A vehicle rear-ended the bus at one of the stops. All students and adults involved were unharmed and the situation was handled quickly and appropriately. There was minimal damage to the bus. Many thanks to the community members who witnessed the accident and helped out. Knowing that the community is always watching out for our kids brings a sense of relief.

Today marks the end of the 1st semester. Report cards will be mailed home at the end of the month. Please keep in mind that there is NO SCHOOL on Monday January, 20 in recognition of Martin Luther King Jr.

The Annual Tremont Ice Fishing Derby to benefit the Tremont 8th grade class trip and the Tremont PTO will take place on Saturday, February 1, 2020. Cold temperatures are not pleasant, but necessary if we want plenty of ice on our lakes and ponds for derby day, so cross your fingers. The Tremont PTO is raffling off a side by side this year and there are many other door prizes and fishing prizes. Tickets can be purchased from 8th grade students or in the main office at TCS. Please feel free to call 244-7777 for more information or stop by the main office.

Our PTO can use help with the upcoming fishing derby. Volunteers are always welcome and helpful in order to pull off this event. Please contact PTO President Megan Lunt, or 8th Grade Advisor Katrina Linscott to volunteer. Without help from volunteers, this event would not be possible. We are grateful for the community support!

Next Thursday, January 23, Tremont 6th graders will travel to Hancock County Technical Center. This visit complements the College Essay project. On Saturday, January 25 Mr. Wood and the Tremont Math Team will travel with other AOS #91 math teams to the Chapter Competition. Please connect with Mr. Wood with any questions about this event.

Have a wonderful long weekend! Stay warm and relax.

Warmly,

Mrs. True
