A Message From Our Principal

Dear Parents and Guardians:

As we begin the 2009-2010 school year, we are pleased to welcome the Class of 2013 as well as our returning sophomores, juniors and seniors. This year will be a time of exciting changes for the entire TCHS community. We will open the newly constructed guidance office to better serve our students and their families. In addition, we are implementing our Universal Breakfast Program where every student will receive a nutritional breakfast to assure greater academic success.

As the new principal, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself.  I began my career with the Trenton Board of Education in September 2001 as a Supervisor for the Special Education Department. One year later, I became the Principal of Mott

School where I served for six wonderful years. Last year, I was the Assistant Superintendent for Area B Schools. When the opportunity arose, I requested that I be allowed to serve as the Principal of this school.  This year, we are joined by two new Vice Principals, Carlos Gonzales and Channing Conway. Returning Vice Principals are Laura Martin, Keith Taylor and Larry Parker. This group of individuals has proven to be a most effective leadership team.

It is our mission to establish high standards for students in order for them to become critical thinkers, effective communicators, global citizens and active participants in the learning process. TCHS offers a variety of athletic and extra-curricular programs, as well as social activities to develop a well rounded student. We need your cooperation, support and involvement! Take the time to talk with your son/daughter about their school experiences. Your interest and concern in their school progress will motivate them to produce their best work. The administration is committed to establishing a partnership with you as we work together to ensure the academic needs of your child are addressed.  We strongly encourage you to maintain communication with your child's teachers, vice principal and with me. Join the Parent Teacher Organization and become an active member. Ask questions and communicate concerns so that we can build a partnership which will ensure student success.  Please keep the following dates in mind:

Students may pick up their schedules August 27-31, 2009 between the hours of 9:00AM and 11:30AM

Freshman orientation will be held September 3, 2009 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM

First Day of school for students is Thursday, September 10, 2009:

- Freshman students  are to report at 8:25AM to the auditorium

- All other students will have a delayed opening. Students are to report to school at 10:30AM

Back to School Night: September 24, 2009 from 6:00PM to 7:30PM

Again, I look forward to working with you toward a successful and rewarding school year.

Respectfully yours,

Mrs. Elizabeth Ramirez

Principal
