Welcome to the District!
A special delivery to the Church of Christ!
Earlier this week, students Avery Stewart and Kennedy Spohn delivered veggies to the church. These veggies came from the garden at Tecumseh Acres Early Learning Center. So far, several deliveries have been dropped off at the church.
If you remember, we first told you about the garden at Tecumseh Acres ELC back in July. Led by teacher Amanda Spohn, staff and students have busted their butts in turning an eyesore into a great, plentiful garden.
Thank you to Prielipp Farms & Greenhouse for donating the seeds.

The new school year is set to begin in less than two weeks. However, with the start of school also brings the end of a federal government program that provided universal free meals to students during the pandemic.
TPS families will once again have to fill out the short application and provide income details to find out if they are eligible for reduced-price or free meals. The USDA has raised the income amounts to qualify for the program.
Those without an updated application on file will pay full price.
The District has set up the Meal Benefits application through Infinite Campus. Sign up information can be found here: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/1491/TPS/2275879/Meal-Benefits-Application-_Portal_.pdf
You can also fill out the application and drop it off at the building your child attends or mail it to TPS.

The Sculpture Garden at Tecumseh High School is about to receive a huge facelift.
Phase Three of the Sculpture Garden is nearing completion. Last week, the construction of the amphitheater at the garden began and is moving along nicely.
Last August, the art department received a very generous anonymous donation of $30,000. That money is being put to great use as it completely pays for the construction and concrete seating.
This project is spearheaded by THS art instructors Christine Obeid and Jackie Whiteley, along with retired art teacher Ron Frenzen.
The Sculpture Garden has come a long way over the past several years. The area is open to the public. Please stop by and check it out!
