Red Sub Folders

We provided you with Red Sub Folders last year.  It is a TCS expectation that these Red Sub Folders be in your classroom for anyone that subs for you.  The red folders are now part of TCS Sub Training so substitutes will be looking for them.  Your Red Sub folder should contain your class rosters, schedules, classroom management plan, safety information, student medical alerts, student accommodations, etc.  If you need a folder, please let the AP on your side of the building know and we will get it to you asap.  Please have these folders updated and ready for our subs asap.  If you need any help, please let us know.


TCS PD Needs Survey

All certified staff should complete the TCS PD survey by 9/30. The link is below:
