Tauscher Times 11.8.22
Hello Power Campus!
Tonight, on campus we host the Fall Sports Awards in the Main Gym with the junior high starting at 5:30pm and the varsity awards following at 7pm.
Reminder this Friday there will be no school in observance of Veteran’s Day.
This month we have more events to look forward to on campus, including our Junior National Honor Society (NJHS) and National Honor Society (NHS) induction ceremony on Monday, Nov. 21. With 53 new students being inducted into this prestigious organization on campus, we could not be prouder of the work and effort going into academics at the school.
Reminder to families that after the Thanksgiving Holiday, students begin Winter MAP Testing. Our reading and math MAP tests are used to make sure our students are growing and meeting grade-level standards and is a powerful tool to help our teachers know when tutoring is needed or how to assist students in their learning. Please have our students prepared upon their return from break to give us their best efforts on these tests.
