TCS Family,

Thank you for your timely participation in our re-enrollment process. Our strong re-enrollment response is an affirmation of the trust and confidence you place in The Christ School serving your family. The completion of the re-enrollment process allows our school leadership team to make informed planning decisions for next school year.

You and all our current families, and families from more than 5,000 other private schools across the country, are being asked to participate in a very brief national research survey being conducted by Independent School Management (ISM), the largest private school consulting firm in the U.S.

The survey data will enable ISM to project trends that will aid us in our long range planning.

ISM has 25 years of experience surveying school constituencies, and absolutely guarantees the anonymity of your responses. The participating schools will be provided with summary data only.

The online survey on ISM's Web site should take you no more than 5 minutes to complete. When you are ready to begin, simply click this link.

Thank you in advance for your thoughtful participation.

Grandparents' Day is Tomorrow!

In less than 24 hours, our campus will be filled with laughter, smiles and joy as TCS grandparents and grandfriends join their students for this annual celebration. In preparation, here are a few final reminders:

1. The program for our grandparents/grandfriends will begin promptly at 9:30 am in the Sanctuary.

2. Friday is a dress uniform day (chapel attire) for ALL students.

3. Friday is an early dismissal day, with students being released at 12:30 pm, unless signed out earlier by his/her grandparent/grandfriend.

4. To those who volunteered to assist on Friday, please refer to your email for details about your shift. (If for some reason you did not receive email confirmation this week, let us know.) If you'd still like to bring in baked goods, we can never have enough! Email Kristen Burden for drop off details.
