Operations is on the Job!
While we were on Thanksgiving Break operations work continued. Operations Assistant, Lisa Dougherty started the process of ordering all of our supplies for next semester. Our Day Porter, Ralph Diprimio, and his assistant Shafiq Akim were hard at work deep cleaning classroom and bathroom floors. As you can imagine, this is a big job which will continue during winter break. We truly cannot thank our facilities team enough. They are the behind-the-scenes people that make what we do possible.

Field Trip Update!
December is filled with field trips for grades 1-5. Scholars will be going to the Environment Studies Center for hands-on field investigation. Students explore the Indian River Lagoon, Hutchinson Island beaches, mangrove communities, freshwater ponds, and wetlands. When you receive the paperwork for your scholar's field trip please return the forms in a timely manner. You can pay for their field trip at this link in MySchoolBucks.
The kindergarten on-site field trip is in the planning stages but will be filled with hands-on exploration of nature and fun activities. Our upper school scholars will be going on their field trips in January and February. We have some exciting destinations planned! Stay tuned for more information.

PTC Community Service Opportunity
The PTC Community Committee is excited to share our first service project!:) We will be partnering with Place of Hope to provide Christmas baskets for the children and parents at three different cottages. Place of Hope is a residential foster home community providing a safe home (cottage) for a set of parents and up to six foster children. For more information about Place of Hope, please visit their website.
We have been provided wish lists for the families at each cottage and dinner date baskets for the parents. Please consider donating by signing up via this link. You can drop off your donations on December 6th, 7th, 8th, or 9th. We will have a box easily available during carline and in the front office:)
Furthermore, each scholar can contribute by making a homemade card for any foster kids! Our goal is 300 cards!
In the spring we will be looking for ways to get out in the community through various volunteer opportunities. If you are interested in joining the PTC community committee, please email Jessica Cavender.

Carline Update
Please be advised, Martin County Sheriff's office will be issuing traffic violations to all cars lined up on Cove Road prior to 2:30 pm.
As a follow-up to carline guidelines, the County is still observing traffic issues related to parents showing up early, and parking on Cove and Ault Road. The goal is to reduce traffic on Cove Road. The county continues to receive complaints from residents regarding TCCA families. Continued protests and unnecessary traffic will prevent TCCA from moving forward with our expansion plans.
The pictures below are from October 26th, where you can see cars lined up before 2:30, in both directions. The County does not want to grant permits for our expansion, while these traffic issues are still ongoing.
The county will be reviewing camera footage regularly to watch traffic from Cove Road entering our campus.
- Drop-off times are from 7:00 a.m.-7:55 a.m. If you are dropping off past 7:55 a.m., you will need to park and walk your scholar to the office.
- Abstain from cell phone usage. Maintain awareness.
Not adhering to these procedures may result in Martin County Sheriff's Office handing out citations to TCCA drivers.
- Dismissal is at 3:00 p.m. Cars are not permitted on campus until 2:30 p.m. Do not idle or park in the turn lanes on Cove Rd. Do not enter Legacy Cove property. Do not park on Ault Ave or at The Grace Place. Do not park anywhere near Anderson Middle School.
-
Walkers will be released 10 minutes earlier at 2:50.
-
If you are in the area of a cone, drop your scholar off, allow them to walk, and move forward. Do not stop when there is room to pull forward. Keep moving forward! Don't get attached to which cone your scholar was told to go to. They should walk around the sidewalk and meet you at the front office, so we can continue to load cars behind you. CLOSE THE GAPS!
- Carline closes promptly at 3:45 p.m. If you arrive past 3:45, the carline will be closed. You will need to park and pick up your scholar. Regularly picking up your scholar late may result in being charged for after-care hours.
Exercise Patience. We are continually working on improving and moving cars
as quickly as possible within safety guidelines.
Safety is our priority! Thank you for your compliance!
