Week of March 26

Welcome back from Spring break!  I hope everyone enjoyed their time off! 

It is now CRUNCH time!  AIMS (8th grade only) and AZMerit testing are almost here.

8th Grade:  We are preparing for AIMS and the homework assignments are related to reviewing the information already learned.  Because of this, the BD Reviews are not eligible for late credit or re-do.  Please make sure you are reading and answering the questions completely!  We are also working on our Genetics Unit.  We are starting off with a quick review of cells and cell structure.

7th Grade:  No AIMS testing for 7th grade!  We are beginning our Ecology unit.  Starting off with Biomes

Parent Survey

Many thanks to those of you have already completed the 2018 parent survey.
We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to let us know your thoughts
about many different topics relating to TCDS.

If you haven't taken the survey yet, we encourage you to take a few
minutes to fill it out.  We want to hear from every family.

The survey takes about ten minutes.

This year, we are running a contest to see if we can increase the number
of families who take the survey. The grade level with the highest
percentage of participation will receive an Eegee's party.  YUM!

Click this link => https://tinyurl.com/tcds2018 to get started now!  Then
please let your child's teacher know you've taken the survey so you can be
counted in the contest.  It's that easy!
