Caught Doing GOOD!
2008-2009 Uniform Policy

TJ has GREAT students. We will feature a student from time to time who has been 'caught' doing good for the school and community here at TJMS. Join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our students and encourage others to emulate their behavior!

 

Cierra Powell - you've been caught doing good!

Mrs. King, health teacher reports:

"Cierra Powell found a wallet with some money in it during cheerleading practice after school during the month of December. The wallet was filled with 20 dollar bills. While she could have very easily kept the wallet, she immediately turned it in to me, after which I turned it over to Mrs. Frye. "

Absolutely spectacular! Congratulations Cierra! Thank you for showing good character even when no one was looking!

TJMS has a mandatory uniform policy. It is not a preference. It's a policy that all students are required to follow.
