The High School Newsletter - Special Student Edition
you have Advisory Group period every day.
The reason for doing this is to have better
relationships with your advisory group
teacher and their job is to support you and
guide you to make better choices and deci-
sions. So far, I’m seeing wonderful things
happen during Advisory Group period such
as learning about PowerSchool, and setting
up TSD email addresses for you.
Getting a TSD email address is a privilege
That is the theme we have been using
since the first week of school. It’s hard to
believe that it has been more than three
weeks already into school. So far, we are
having a good start this month as you are
now busy juggling many things- classes
and after school activities. I would like
to share that we welcomed 30 9th graders
and over 13 new students and we are still
getting new students. When you see a
new student, be sure to give him or her a
Ranger welcome!
As you can see, we have made some
changes to make the best out of your
learning experience here. We changed the
name from Homeroom teachers to
Advisory Group teachers and this year
Reach New Heights & Be the Difference!
that will be used for school purposes only- sending emails to your teachers about home-
work assignments or contacting your counselor to make an appointment. We hope that
you will make good use of it this year.
Another thing I am excited about is the HS/CTE Catalog. You recently worked with your
Advisory Group on learning more about
the HS/CTE Catalog. We wanted to print
something for you and your
parents/guardians to use to make
informed decisions about your HS
classes and future planning. We hope
that you will use it often to learn more
about what you can do for your future.
I’m sure you all are looking forward to
Spirit Week next week. It’s going to be a
fun-filled week and don’t forget to manage your time wisely with finishing homework
assignments on time and showing up for Homecoming events. Be sure to show your
spirit and Ranger pride!
Lastly, remember this year’s theme- Be the difference. What you do and say affects the
rest of the school so treat others just like what you would like for others to treat you. Re-
member, together, we can reach new heights and be the difference!
Student Development is excited to reach new heights with TSD students this year! Our students will see more activities going on at Deaf Smith Center (DSC). We are also open everyday for students to socialize. We have cool student workers to run DSC every night. We very excited and working with the students to get ready for Homecoming Spirit Week! We will have Homecoming Dance on Saturday after HC Football game! TSD students are in for special treats! We will have great hands on activities, educational workshops and loads of games for students to enjoy. Our goal for 2011-2012 school year is to have Deaf Smith Center to be everyone’s second home as cozy place for students to relax, play games, do homework and socialize. Together we shall REACH NEW HEIGHTS!!! We wish you all a great year at TSD!
