The end of the 25-26 school year is upon us. Seniors have left the building. Those staff members retiring have a continuous smile on their face. Students are ready to enjoy their summer vacation. Did I mention how big the retiring staff members smiles are? The reason for sending this letter is to let you know that dismissal on May 21, will be at 1:30. Tuscola CUSD 301 wishes everyone a great summer and we look forward to the 2026-27 school year.

Mrs. Wyant's 5th grade Math class completed a STEM activity where they inflated a balloon by mixing vinegar and baking soda.
