All TCSS schools and offices will be open and under normal operation Wednesday, November 13th. As the weather will be very cold, all of our facilities will be prepared as the heat will remain on tonight and tomorrow night. Our buses have heat as well.

Please take care to dress for the colder-than-normal weather. Coats, hats, gloves, scarves, earmuffs, etc. 

Congratulations to our FANTASTIC lunchroom staff! Staff were asked to dress up, decorate and show school spirit during National School Lunch week. They won the award for having 100% participation! #theGNMSway

At the beginning of the year, Advanced Graphic Design students were presented with a yearlong project. The project involved them gathering information, writing articles, taking photos, and laying out the information in a newsletter template that we created. The students were divided into groups and assigned a CTAE teacher/pathway. We had a friendly competition to develop the masthead for our monthly newsletter.

We are pleased to share with you that our first newsletter which introduces each of the career pathways is attached below. The students have worked hard and we are extremely proud of them and the product they have produced.
