COINS FOR TSAS
We are collecting coins!!! Please bring your coins to school. There are collection jars in the Fishbowl and by the Garage. Mid-First will be at school again on
Wednesday March 10th at lunch with their big coin machine. We need $1500 in coins again for Mid-First to donate another $1500 to TSAS!
Thank you to all that have contributed. A few coins from everyone helps a great deal. Students make a big effort these last 2 days and dig through the couch and car seats to find any extra change and contribute to YOUR TSAS.
1. The TSAS Board of Trustees meeting will be held TOMORROW (Tuesday, March 9th), from 5:30-7:00 pm followed by the TSAS PTSA meeting from 7:00-8:00 pm.
2. The TSAS Jazz bands invite you to their performance Thursday at the Memorial High School Auditorium. The performance will take place at 7 and feature both jazz bands as well as the Memorial jazz band. It will be a cool night of hot jazz, please join us.
3. Do you like to draw? Do you like to paint? Would you like to see one of your designs on the cover of a Literary Anthology? Well, this is your chance! The Ex Cineribus Literary Anthology is holding a contest, and we want you
to be a part of it. We're looking for a drawing or painting of a phoenix with your personal spin on it. Just fill out a visual art submission form, which can be found various spots around the school, title your work as "Phoenix Submission", and deposit the
form into the drop box in the fishbowl. The winner will have their design used as the cover of the anthology. Don't forget to get your submit your stories, photos and more as well. The Deadline for all submissions is March 23!
4. Please see Ms. Gates, Smith, or Foshee if you are interested in a summer screenwriting and/or film making camp at TU.
5. History Club Meeting: Today. Roommate selection for Chicago.
6. Prom Committee Meeting on Tuesday at lunch.
7. Seniors: Please pay for and pick up your shirts!
8. TSAS PTSA is looking for a few committed involved parents to be nominated as officers for the upcoming school year 2010/11. We are in need of a Vice President and a Secretary. If you have an interest in being nominated to either position, please email Karen McMillan at kmcm...@swbell.net. I will be glad to give you more information once I know you are interested. There will also be other committee opportunities available, so if holding an officer position isn't for you, one of our committees may be just the place to shine! More information on committee positions will be coming over the next several weeks. TSAS PTSA plays an important role in getting the word out to the community about TSAS, providing Lunch Bunch for the students and for providing funding for the school and its events. I would LOVE to hear from you!!!
9. Please join us on Monday, March 22, 2010 for the annual TSAS Town Hall meeting at New Haven United Methodist Church (flier attached). Current students and parents, as well as newly accepted students and parents are welcome to attend. Find out why students choose to attend TSAS over other public high schools and why our teachers choose to teach at TSAS! Find out what is expected of our students (and parents), and see how you can be involved to make the TSAS community as successful as it has been and will continue to be for many years! Enjoy the rockin' sounds of the TSAS Jazz band! We look forward to seeing you Monday evening, March 22 from 7 to 8:30 pm. at 5603 South New Haven Ave.
