Announcements and Reminders
Attendance Matters All Day Everyday!
The correlation between excellent grades and excellent attendance is undeniable! Your childβs attendance is also tied to their ability to receive high school credit. If your child has 10 or more absences in a class during a semester, they lose credit in that class. Letβs work together to ensure that our students receive credits and stay on track to graduate. Contact an administrator if you have question regarding attendance. Please remind your child that at TR, Attendance Matters All Day Everyday!

Healthy Lifestyles: Gratitude Journal-Making During Lunch Periods
Research indicates that expressing gratitude can improve mood, strengthen friendships, reduce depression, and enhance sleep quality. One effective way to cultivate gratitude daily is by keeping a gratitude journal. Stop by the library during lunch (schedule below) to pick up supplies and create your own! You can work independently or with guidance from the librarian.
Feel free to attend multiple sessions to continue using art supplies, stickers, and pre-printed journal prompts to set up your journal. Practicing gratitude can brighten each day and promote a healthier mindset for everyone. We hope youβll join us!
