Tuscola Community High School

All incoming freshmen, new students transferring into TCHS, and their families are invited to the High School's Freshmen/New Student Orientation on Tuesday, August 12th at 7pm.

We will meet in Stage 301 at the HS to discuss general building expectations. We will then offer building tours and have tables set up in the gym with older students discussing what each extra-curricular group does in our building. Last and certainly not least, ice cream treats will be provided!

Get a head start on the new school year! Now is the perfect time to schedule your child's required health exam.
Be sure to review all health requirements and due dates to stay on track.
