TMEMS Information & Updates 9/15/23

Constitution Day at TMEMS 9/18/23

Constitution Day is September 17th which is Sunday, but the Honor Guard is available Monday the 18th to bring attention to this important event in U.S. history.  TMEMS will be celebrating this year's Constitution Day and Citizenship Day to commemorate the signing of the U.S. Constitution on Monday, September 18, 2023. At the Montano Campus, we will be having the Team Kirtland Honor Guard visit and post colors outdoors in front of the school for students to say the morning pledge together. Officers will visit for a few minutes to speak with students about the flag and what it means to be a citizen to represent our nation in celebration and guard our national treasures and to honor those who have served. Students will also be able to ask the officers questions about the flag, uniforms, and why they joined the Honor Guard.

Our Carmel (Casita) Campus will also be celebrating Constitution Day with their own celebration at their campus that our teachers will lead and organize.
