College Connections
Are your children going to college this fall? Send us your college student's address so we can stay in touch!
Make sure they are part of the College Connection Program! It is a great way to keep our kids connected with the TST community!
Three times a year, during holidays, we'll send a gift of goodies! All you have to do is provide us with your child's address, and we'll take care of the rest!
Do you want to help put the packages together, meet other parents and schmooze? --- it's an easy and fun way to be involved!
To be a part of the College Connection program, we need:
Student's Name
College
College address
Class year
Student's email address
If your child is studying abroad, we want to know! Tell us where they're studying and for how long.
