Good Morning Talawanda. Today is Monday, March 1st, 2021.
The THS Media Center has double the number of overdue books due to the remote learning and school closings. We did not have a chance to collect most of the books that were due from the 2019-2020 school year and most of the books that were checked out during the brief face to face weeks in late October and early November 2020. If possible, especially those who are currently attending in person, please return or renew any book you currently have checked out that is overdue.
Seniors, if you ordered graduation announcements they can be picked up in the main office.
Seniors, you also need to make sure your senior portrait is submitted to yearbook by March 5th. If you do not submit your senior portrait, yearbook will use your life touch photo.
Here’s a round table discussion with Ms. Sarno about adapting curriculum to our new way of learning, followed by sports with Luke West Poley
