Hello Secondary families! 
I hope everyone enjoyed Spirit Week. On campus we had daily activities led by our senior class. I want to recognize the seniors for their hard work in planning activities across campus this week. Ask your children about today’s pep rally!
 
Next week, all Secondary students will be taking the MAP assessment starting Monday. If you have any questions about the schedule, please contact your child’s following teacher. MAP results will be sent home at the end of the 1st quarter along with progress reports and report cards.
 
Also next week, Wednesday October 20 will be an early release day, with 12PM dismissal.
 
Have a great weekend!
Message from Superintendent Glennis Matthews
Hello, Families,

I hope you have enjoyed learning about what your students are studying and their classroom activities this past week. 

I felt it was important to share an update with all of you after last week’s COVID case at TLC:

We did have one person in our community who tested positive. Subsequently, several other individuals were identified as close contacts, and we felt that the safest decision for everyone was to close our ECC building for two days. 

All the other individuals identified as close contacts did end up testing negative. We want to thank all our families and our entire TLC community for their partnership and patience as we continue to navigate these challenging times.

Our COVID protocols here at TLC include detailed steps and several subcommittees that all work tirelessly to prioritize our messaging, accessibility and platforms. We acknowledge that sometimes, we may not get it perfect. We appreciate your compassion; your feedback is invaluable to us. 

Should you continue to have any concerns or feedback, we ask that you email us at healthandsafety@tlcdeaf.org. 

Thank You! Please stay safe. Wear a mask - and wash your hands!!
