Graduating from the 8th Grade is a momentous occasion in a young person's life! Completing the 8th Grade truly marks the beginning of the transistion from childhood to young adulthood, as the student prepares to enter high school.
TCJH plans several special events and activities in honor of this year in the life of our 8th graders. Please continue to visit this page as we will provide information and helpful links for both parents and students on upcoming activities.

10-Day Washington, D.C. Trip: Fall of 8th Grade Year
This 10-Day trip to the East Coast is one of the most awesome experiences in the life of a TC student. Visiting various unique historical sites, museums, and government buildings allows our 8th graders to 'touch' American History as never before. Traveling through states such as Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Pennysylvania, and New York deeply enriches their understanding of our great country's history. This is truly one of the most memorable times they will ever experience!

Yearbook Information: Ads & Photos
Parents, grandparents, other family members...are invited to place personal and/or business ads in our yearbooks. Business ads help to promote TC families, and personal notes to students add that special touch to our yearbook. It's also a great way to congratulate your 8th Grader on their JH graduation. Many parents have honored their child by including a Baby Photo along with a current photo. Other ideas? Place an ad with your child and their best buddy and split the cost! Advertise your business by placing an ad! Limited space is designated for ads, so it is provided on a first-come, first-serve basis.
