I hope you got to witness the beauty and majesty of the Blood Super Moon, even if it makes things a little wonky. I found these interesting Super Moon facts

We are a month into school and the start of school has been great! We are beyond impressed with the students engagement in their learning, being on time to school, and keeping their phones and air pods away. Is it perfect, no, but have we made a tremendous amount of progress, YES! We thank you for your support.

As we settle into the school year I want to remind everyone of the inclusion statement we rolled out; our goal this year for every student and staff to feel welcome and that they belong at TMHS. We will do that by demonstrating The Miner Way of respect, responsibility and integrity. If you can continue to reiterate that in the community it helps in school.

Parents and community members are invited to attend the District Literacy Team. We will meet on Monday, September 30th from 3:30-5pm in Room 111 at TIS (in the 5th grade hallway). Please come to learn about student growth and achievement in reading as well as our plans for this year and future supports. We look forward to hearing your experiences and questions about reading instruction at TSD. Feel free to join via Zoom if that is more convenient. Please reach out to Emily Bordogna, District Literacy Coordinator, with any questions embordogna@telluride.k12.co.us
