Thank you to TCHS senior Brayden Gough for his work all school year long as our News-Gazette High School Confidential writer.

Brayden was recently awarded certificates of appreciation from the News-Gazette and from Danville Area Community College for his efforts.

The TCHS Drama Department would like to extend a huge thank you to all who attended our spring production. Not only were all seats filled up for opening night, but Friday night every last chair at North Ward was used to accommodate the large audience. The community support our program receives is second to none. We are already looking forward to and planning for an extra special 2024-2025 season! Stay tuned, and thank you for supporting the arts in Tuscola! ~Mrs. Steffens
