TMC Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to the month of May, what a great start with our current weather. Badminton has been going strong, and the players will have their divisional meets over the next couple of weeks and Track and Field is just around the corner. Students have had the opportunity to work with an outside group during PE, teaching them the nuances of Flag Football. Next week on Friday May 9th we will be holding a school wide activity day to support building a positive school community, students had the opportunity to sign up for various activities. They may not get their first choice or be with their best friend, but we hope that students will enjoy whichever activity they are placed in.
I am asking for some parental support regarding a community complaint the school received regarding student behavior on Calgary Transit Bus 174. A community member reached out to the school stating that some of our students are behaving in an inappropriate manner. We were not provided any student names, so I am hoping that as parents you can speak with your student and remind them to behave in a respectful manner while riding public transportation. Thank you in advance for your support.
Have a great weekend.
Chad Flaman
