Following their contest each grade level traveled outside to our special trail lit with ghostly luminarias made by 4th grade and completed tasks to earn tickets which were deposited in their class' scarecrow pumpkin bucket. The winning class (Mrs. Elan) will be having a yogurt party soon!!!

It was a great fall night and everyone had a wonderful time...Can't wait for next fall to see what new characters appear.

He thoroughly enjoyed visiting with the kids and telling about his job in Harrisburg.

It was quite an honor to be selected to be a part of our tour and he hopes to visit us again some time. The students were all very attentive and had great questions about farms and food!!!

Congratulations to Nick Drake, a 7th Grade student at TMS! Nick entered his drawing into the Team Voyager banner contest and was selected by the Team Voyager teachers as the 2009 winner. Team Voyager, who sponsored the contest, consists of the middle school art, music, physical education, library science, technology education, family and consumer science, foreign languages and computer science departments.

Along with winning a T-shirt prize, Nick is in the process of designing the banner which will be displayed in the TMS cafeteria. He is being assisted by fellow 7th grader Ben Snyder. Team Voyager would like to give a big THANK YOU to all students who participated in the contest!

We hope to see everyone support Team Voyager by attending our Voyager Fest evening on Thursday, November 17th from 6-7:30 pm.

The ninth graders of THS's Freshman eXpress enjoyed their first recognition gathering on Friday, October 30th when they spent their 9th period directed learning class in an ice cream social in the cafeteria.  The social was to recognize all the students in the freshman class who go through the grading period doing what is expected of them without normally receiving any attention for it.  Those students were rewarded with ice cream served by their teachers, the principal and vice principal.

This was the first of several recognitions planned throughout the year.  Images of the ICS are viewable in the gallery section of this site or by clicking HERE.
