🎨 Art, Culture, and Critical Thinking!
Our West Senior High Sophomore ELA classes recently traded the classroom for the galleries at The Dennos Museum Center! 🏛️

From exploring intricate sculptures and the famous Inuit art collection to engaging with contemporary installations, our students spent the day immersed in diverse cultural exhibits. Experiences like these help our Titans connect their classroom learning to the wider world of artistic expression.

A huge thank you to the Dennos Museum for hosting us and to our students for their curiosity and insight!

TCAPS schools will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, March 18, 2026. This decision was made to prioritize the safety of our students, staff, and community by allowing our facilities team and local road crews the time needed to clear the heavy snow received throughout the district and on secondary roads. While all school buildings are closed, the TCAPS Administration Building will be open. Employees who normally report on closure days should report as scheduled.

Students currently enrolled in Michigan Virtual, Acellus, or Dual-Enrolled classes should follow the specific direction of their instructors for those programs.
