TMEMS Information & Updates (1/19/24)

Middle School Reminder!

We have had an increase in the number of dress code violations in our middle school recently. We wanted to send out a friendly reminder that all middle school students should be in dress code, meaning all students should be showing the TMMS logo on their outside most layer when they are INSIDE the building. 

We understand it is cold and students need to wear a jacket or sweatshirt outside. However, if students want to wear their sweatshirt inside, they should wear a TMMS shirt over the sweatshirt or you may purchase a TMMS sweatshirt. If your student is out of dress code, we will have them call home for a uniform shirt or allow them to borrow a shirt from the office that will need to be washed and returned. 

Please let us know if there are hardships acquiring TMMS shirts for your student so we can support you in that process. 

Here is our student handbook if you would like to read the dress code policy:

Intent to Return for the 2024-2025 School Year

Link to Intent to Return: https://forms.gle/KWaAyMCdMmWrRm488
 

Purpose of this form: The Intent to Return Form helps inform TMEMS administration of the spots that we have available for the upcoming new student lottery that will occur in late February. Without this form, administration does not have an idea of how many spots we have available and cannot make sure we have the correct enrollment numbers which correlates directly with our school funding. Please complete this Intent to Return form so we may accurately plan for the upcoming school year, 2024-2025.
 

We need one form for each individual current TMEMS student. If you have siblings that attend TMEMS, you will fill out multiple forms, one for each child. 

Please remember that:
 

  • Without a complete Intent to Return form, we may not be able to place your child in their current class for the upcoming school year, 2024-2025.
     

  • Siblings of current TMEMS students are admitted if appropriate space is available.  An 'Application for Admission' form is still required for any, not currently enrolled, sibling admission.
     

  • Kindergarten Families: If you are in our TMEMS pre-k program and wish to enroll your student in kindergarten at TMEMS, you will need to complete an application for kindergarten. Being in our pre-k program does not guarantee a spot in our kindergarten program. Link to TMEMS Kindergarten enrollment application: https://forms.gle/VGgTKA3EaBtukLLR7
     

If you have any questions, please email: Ms. Amanda at ahagerty@tmesnm.com.

 

Student Led Conferences (2/2/2024)

Student Led Conferences for both the Montano and Carmel campuses are coming up on 2/2/2024! 

SLCs are where students choose a work/s and/or assignment to showcase and model for their families. These conferences have multiple families in the room during one time slot. These are not meant to be one on one conferences but are for students to show parents/guardians what they are working on in class. 

Your student’s teacher sent out a SignUpGenius link and more information on their classroom specific information on Wednesday, 1/17/24, by 4:00pm!  

There will be no regular classes or before or after care that day. 

4th Grade Students Only

Please see this important letter regarding the NAEP Assessment on February 1, 2024.  
 

TMEMS Open House 2/3/24- Spread the Word! 

We will be having our annual TMEMS Open House on 2/3/24. This is when parents/guardians that are not enrolled at TMEMS can come and visit our campus and fill out an application for the next school year (2024/2025). Spread the word to any family or friends who may be interested in TMEMS for the upcoming school year! 

 

Remember, this is for prospective parents. Students and families already enrolled at TMEMS for the 23/24 school year do not need to fill out another application for the 24/25 school year.
