Baby Animal Day The Tri-City United High School FFA group hosted a very educational and exciting event called Baby Animal Day on Thursday, May 12th. All TCU K-4 students were invited to attend. Students from Lonsdale were bussed to TCU Montgomery K-8. Once at the school, they were able to see the new baby farm animals. They learned about the animals from the high school students and were able to pet and even hold some of the smaller animals. There even was a hay ride for the students. This is an annual extraordinary, memorable opportunity for the students! Thank you to the FFA! 2017-18 Bus Registration Even though we are just concluding the 2016-17 school year, it is already time to be planning for 2017-2018 and that includes completing the necessary Bus Registration form. This form was sent home with your child last week. Please return the form by Monday, May 22nd. In order for our bus routes to be the most efficient, we need to know if your child(ren) will be riding. You can also get an additional form on our TCU website www.tcu2905.us and click on District Transportation and then Bus Registration Form or contact Heather in our office. Thank you for taking the time to provide this information so we can be timely in developing routes and communicating with you in August. Reading Corps Tutors Needed.
