Congratulations to our graduating class of 2019 and may God richly bless your lives!  

This past Thursday, we had a very exciting science day.  Volvo Group, which has a local Hagerstown site, sponsored a  girls' science day at our local Discovery Station for grades 1st - 8th to encourage interest in science and technology.  Volvo group team members organized the activities and made sure everyone had a team member.  The youngest girls built cardboard cannons, 3rd and 4th graders made disk launchers, 5th and 6th graders made ballistas, and 7th and 8th graders made a circuit based radio.  After these projects were complete, the students had time to explore the exhibits and enjoy the Discovery Station.

See our photo gallery for many exciting photos from this event.  We would like to extend our thanks to the Volvo Group for sponsoring this day and the Discovery Station for hosting this wonderful event.  The students enjoyed the experience and came away with an excitement for science and technology.

While the girls had fun at the Discovery Station, the boys from grades 3 - 8 were busy making robots.  Mr. Molder helped the boys assemble their robots and everyone enjoyed the finished product.  Check out our gallery for photos of this class experience!

TCA high school students enjoyed a fun day at Escape This!  What a great way to learn how to work as a team.  We love taking our students on fun field trips and everyone had a great time.
​

Attention Parents and Friends of TCA, please take note of the following events:

• Monday, May 27th, is Memorial Day.  No school.
• Thursday, May 30th:
  • Last day of school, we will have a picnic at Church of God Universal if weather permits, pizza and drinks will be provided.  Pick up your children by noon.
  • Our Graduation service will be held at the Church of God Universal at 6pm.

In preparation of the last day of school, please check to see if your child has any school library books to return.  We are excited to spend these last few weeks with the students of TCA and then I'm sure we will all enjoy a long summer off!  

We now have a donation page on our website and we are currently raising funds for our 2019/20 school year.  The money raised will help us keep tuition rates affordable.  TCA currently offers rates that are 60% lower than the average of other private schools in the area and we are able to do so with generous support from our friends, family and sponsors.  We prefer to keep rates as low as possible so that we can reach families of every income level.  All support given goes directly to TCA operating costs and helps us provide a Christian education to many families who might otherwise have limited choices.  We are a non-profit organization and will provide a year end tax receipt.  Every dollar helps and we thank you for your support.  We also happily accept donations of equipment, supplies, books, etc.  

Today we'd like to welcome students back to the last quarter of the 2018/19 school year!  Upcoming dates to keep in mind are:

• Monday April 22nd - school will be closed for Easter break, school reopens Tuesday April 23rd
• Monday May 27th - school will be closed for Memorial Day
• Thursday May 30th
  
  • Last day of school
  • Graduation for Seniors, service to be held at the Church of God Universal at 6pm

Less than two months to go!  Hang in there students and parents, we are so close!!
