January Family Update

Greetings TLC Families.

We hope you were able to enjoy the holidays by relaxing and celebrating with your friends and family. We are excited to welcome our students back and begin a new semester. Our shared goal at TLC is to strive each and every day to help our students become life ready after they graduate from high school.

We will start the semester by reviewing expectations with students on a daily basis. Please help support these efforts by reviewing our Behavior Matrix with your student. Please pay close attention to the information regarding smart devices and Chromebooks, which are most the common source of student issues.

Please make sure you have access to Canvas, EOS, and Infinite Campus, so you can support your student behaviorally and academically.

• Instructions and Information for Guardian Access to Canvas
• Instructions and Information for Guardian Access to Infinite Campus
• Instructions and Information for Guardian Access to EOS (Employability Operating System)

Please review the important dates below. Note that there are two early release Working Wednesdays on January 15th and January 29th. In addition, academic support (ESS) will be offered after school every Tuesday and Thursday from 4:15-5:15.

Finally, please take the time to nominate a staff member that made a difference for your student(s):
