On Thursday, May 1, TKHS will have a drunk driving mock disaster.  This event will happen in the afternoon on Bender Road in front of the high school.  Senior and junior students will be in attendance and some will even participate in the event.  The mock disaster is taking place for two reasons:

-To provide a powerful message to our seniors and juniors about the dangers of drinking and driving (two days before Prom).

-For TKHS to provide a community service to our local emergency organizations (gives them an opportunity to practice the needed skills in emergency response).

More information will be out soon.

If you missed the TKHS Jazz Band at the Grand Rapids Griffins game a few weeks ago, you have another opportunity to see them at Van Andel Arena during the Grand Rapids Rampage game against the Tampa Bay Storm on Friday, May 16.  Our Jazz Band always represents TK in fine fashion!

There will be a March of Dimes “Hat Day” at the high school on Friday, April 25.  Students and staff can wear a hat for the day for $1.  All proceeds go to the March of Dimes (“Saving Babies, Together”).  Staff can also wear jeans for a $1 donation.

Eighth grade student and parent orientation is Thursday, March 13 at TKHS from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.  This is an opportunity for 8th grade students and parents to begin their transition to high school life.  Course options will be a main topic of discussion.  The orientation begins in the auditorium.  Welcome class of 2012!
