Have you had the chance to download the Tecumseh Public Schools app? If not, it’s so easy to do. Where to find the app: • For Android: https://bit.ly/3oPn4BI • For iPhone: https://apple.co/2LU0Obu We’ve made some changes to the app. When you first load it, the ‘Home’ page features the ‘Live Feed’ and ‘Events.’ However, you know have the ability to make the app appear like the desktop version of the website. Just click ‘Menu’ and you’ll see the options bar. Click ‘Full Website’ and you’re good to go! We also want to make sure you’re aware of the ‘Push Notifications’ feature. This feature keeps you in the loop when the district pushes out information through the app. That way you will not miss any updates from the district, like brand new stories, Live Feed updates, school closures and more. For more information on the ‘Push Notifications,’ follow the steps on the attached graphic.

Just like at Herrick Park Intermediate Learning Center, students at Patterson ILC are at the anchor desk reading the 'news.' Today was the first day the anchors read the morning announcements to their classmates... and they're naturals. We may have some future journalists on our hands. The students love it, the staff loves it, and we encourage all students to take part in the announcements.

Watch out, news industry. Some of our youngest students are gunning for your jobs! Starting this week, 3rd and 4th graders at Herrick Park Intermediate Learning Center began delivering the ‘news’ to their fellow classmates and the staff. Normally, the principal may make the morning announcements, but our students have taken over those duties. News of the day consists of the anchors leading everyone in the Pledge of Allegiance, events at Herrick Park, the weather, random facts, and more. Also, on Fridays, the anchors hold a drawing for READY Expectations winners. Winners get their choices of several available prizes. READY Expectations are: Respectful, Exhibit Safety, Accountable, Determined, You Belong. Teachers and staff have been working hard teaching and practicing these building wide expectations with all students. Students are acknowledged for their behaviors they exhibit through READY tickets.

The concession stand at Tecumseh Middle School is looking a little different these days. Kiwanis Club of Tecumseh Key Club members, Allie and Elle, were working concessions the other day and felt the concession stand needed a facelift. Their work has definitely livened up the area a bit more. Tecumseh Middle School Builders Club and Key Club members run the concession stand during every home game. The TMS Builders Club is the largest service organization for middle school students. One of the great things about this club is that it's student run!
