The Superintendent's Student Advisory Board tried something new this year, SSAB Orientation, for it's newest members. Orientation consisted of an ice breaker, leadership activities, learning more about SSAB, expectations, and lots of bonding.
The Troy School District is thrilled to welcome 20 new students to SSAB this year!
The November 5 proposal has two parts:
1. RENEWAL of the 18 mill NON-HOMESTEAD operating millage.
2. RENEWAL of the HOLD HARMLESS millage.
This keeps taxes at their current operating rates for the Non-Homestead and Hold Harmless millage.
Together these generate approximately $42.5 million annually which is 22% of the school district’s operating budget. Learn more on our website at https://www.troy.k12.mi.us/about-us/millage-renewal
The Fall Robotics Kickoff event took place on September 7, 2024, at Bloomfield Hills High School, hosted by the Bionic Black Hawks FRC Team 2834. Two FTC teams from Larson Middle School attended the in-person kickoff event: Girl Botz FTC 22918 and Rollin Rebels 19787. Prior to the game reveal, various workshops were held covering topics such as programming, building, and game strategy. The game reveal occurred at noon in the auditorium, after which the robotics teams were invited to take measurements and pictures of the game elements. Teams then gathered in designated areas to brainstorm ideas before departing.
Athens, IA, TCCHS, and Troy High students had the opportunity to check out different work stations during a mobile field trip visit from Schools to Tools. Students worked with various tools and learned about different jobs and benefits available in the skilled trades.
This was a great opportunity for students!
Public Act 258, through a partnership with the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) and the Michigan Secretary of State, allows high school students the opportunity to preregister, or register, to vote within their public high school. This act ensures that individuals who are at least 16 years of age, but less than 18 years of age, and eligible to preregister to vote, are informed of the opportunity. We are excited that our high schools will provide this opportunity to our students. We look forward to engaging our students and elevating their voices. #Vote
