Hello TCS families. I Thess. 5:16-18 says, “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus”. Have a great weekend! Here are a few news items we wanted to share with you.
New Tuition Management Program:
We will be switching over from Smart Tuition to the FACTS Tuition management program for the 2021/ 2022 school year. If you have any previous or unpaid balance through Smart Tuition, please pay the remaining balance through Smart Tuition. Those who are paying registration fees or tuition for the 2021-22 school year will be receiving an online payment plan invite from FACTS. At your earliest convenience, please go ahead and set up your payment plan through FACTS for the upcoming school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Marie Brite in the business office at 419 227-1644 (Option 1) or email britem@tcspioneers.org.
Miss Kirkendall’s K5 Class Activity:
Last week, Miss Kirkendall's K5 class learned about farm animals and read the story of the Three Little Pigs. Throughout the week, the students worked together to build their own houses for their pigs. On Friday, the "Big Bad Wolf" came and visited and tried to knock down their houses.

Elementary Art:
Just as a mother bird teaches her baby to fly, sometimes we must learn new difficult things -like moving up to a new grade level! Anytime the baby bird seems to be falling, the mother bird swoops underneath and catches her. God has promised to uphold us with His righteous right hand as we step into more difficult seasons of life! (Isaiah 41:10)

Clash of Colors:
The 6-12th graders finished day 6 of 7 in the 2021 Clash of Colors competition. All cans and cash raised throughout the competition will be donated to the "Lima Rescue Mission". In total the students raised $1,000 and will donate over 500 cans of food to the local mission. Clash of Colors finishes up next Friday with the final day of competition to see if the Blue or Gray team will come out on top!
