TVHS parents and families. Iโm sure by now youโve seen our auto shop students
sporting the very sharp and very popular โShop Dawgsโ work shirts. Iโve spoken to
some of my studentsโ families and many have expressed a desire for their very own
shirt and in fact, I had one family buy 11 shirts as Christmas presents for other
members of their family. This is the last chance to get a personalized shop shirt
for just $35. After this order, the supplier is increasing the cost and passing it on
to the consumer. I can get adult sizes Adult S to 4XL. As with many work shirts,
these quality Red Kap work shirts run about one size big. There is an up-charge of
$2 for 2XL and larger. They are available in gray and black with your name over the
left breast pocket, 3-inch โShop Dawgsโ logo over the right breast pocket and a
10-inch โShop Dawgsโ logo over the right breast pocket. The โShop Dawgsโ logo
features Cosmo, my service dog that comes to work with me almost every day.
Featuring him on the logo was the idea of the students of my inaugural class. All
money above the cost of the shirts goes directly back into the TSD auto program.
I have to say, you canโt find a personalized work/hot rod shirt for less than $60.
Basically, this is a bargain at twice the price. Show your support for the trades and
the TSD Automotive program by sporting one of these shirts. Plus, โAll the cool
kids are doing it!โ Shirt orders must be in by November 30th to lock in this price. Please email Mr. DeSantiago at david.desantiago@tsd.org
Respectfully,
David De Santiago
