This week, Grammar School students wrapped up their unit on immigration with their Ellis Island Feast. Students applied what they’ve learned in history class through presentations on family heritage and an interactive Ellis Island experience.

"When we celebrate, we exercise our ability to see and feel goodness in the simplest gifts of God."

Last night, TCA celebrated the Advent season together with the 7-11 Choir & Band Christmas Concert.

41 students were able to experience the arts this past week when they attended “My Fair Lady” at the Orpheum.

Congratulations to Josephine, Isaiah, and Asher, representing TCA at Nebraska’s All State Band and Symphony this week!

Congratulations to our volleyball teams for finishing their season strong! They placed 1st in the 8A bronze division and 2nd in the 6th grade bracket in their season ending tournament! Even through injuries and a long season, they fought hard to end well!

PE and History collided this past week. Grammar School pioneers used wagons (scooter boards underneath a mat) to gather supplies and make a sculpture. When their sculptures were complete, they traveled around the territory to admire and appreciate the other sculptures.

TCA’s first info meeting of the season will be on October 12 at 6:30 pm! This 90 minute meeting gives families a chance to hear about the school, have their questions answered, and meet key staff leaders.

Registration is required, so visit our website to RSVP!

Last Friday upper school students were called into the new year by peers and mentors at the annual Vocans breakfast. The breakfast included a first annual Blazer Ceremony for our newest rhetoric students and service by the House of Ten Boom!

It’s a great time to purchase school uniforms for next year!

This quarter, students in Grades 3-6 have been studying geology, and in conjunction with that, the Gold Rush of 1849. They had fun experiencing their own “Gold Rush” by rushing to “Sutter’s Mill” to practice panning for gold, testing it for authenticity, and enjoying common miner fare like jerky, beans, and cornmeal mash. They delighted in seeing the science and history of 1849 come to life!

Students in Grades 7 & 8 enjoyed Cotillion where they came together to eat dinner, dance the night away, and most importantly, have a lot of fun with their peers! In preparation of this, they participated in etiquette training and learned a few formal dances. The students had a wonderful time dressing up, building relationships, and creating lasting memories.

Students in Grades 7 & 8 participated in etiquette training ahead of their Cotillion last week! They learned about proper place settings, table manners, and tips on how to create good discussion with others at their table. The purpose of etiquette training is to give students practice on how to honor and respect those around them, resulting in an enjoyable meal for all.

“Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere, nor can one England brook a double reign of Harry Percy and the Prince of Wales.”
Each spring at TCA, students in Grade 6 perform a Shakespeare play in front of their friends and family. This year, they put on King Henry IV! The students worked so hard the past few months memorizing lines, practicing dramatization, and preparing the stage for each scene. They had a lot of fun and did a fantastic job making this play come to life!

TCA welcomed grandfriends last week at Grandfriends’ Day! They joined students in their classrooms where they shared stories, listened to presentations, drew maps, and created memories to last a lifetime. We are thankful for the generations who have gone before us, and we are honored that they can pass down their wisdom, legacy, and faith to our students.
“Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. Make them known to your children and your children’s children-“ - Deuteronomy 4:9

TCA students in Grades 1-6 enjoyed a Pilgrim’s Progress Experience where they traveled to stops in Christian’s journey on his way to the Celestial City! They laid their “burdens” down at the Cross, climbed the Hill of Difficulty, received their shields in the Palace Beautiful, and proceeded through the Dark Valley, Vanity Fair, and the Dark River. When they reached their final destination, they let go of their shields, entered the Celestial City, and rejoiced! “I seek a place that can never be destroyed, one that is pure, and that fadeth not away, and is laid up in heaven, and is safe there, to be given, at the time appointed, to them that seek it with all their heart.”

Congratulations to TCA’s 5th grade boys for winning the championship game in their division this weekend! TCA basketball is officially over for the year, and we want to thank all of the players, coaches, and parents who invested their time and talents in this season. Well done on building skill, sportsmanship, perseverance, and teamwork. Go Lions! 🦁

TCA held a Rhetoric Winter Formal for students in Grades 9-10! They had the opportunity to enjoy an evening of fellowship, pool, trivia, dinner, and dancing. They were also served throughout the evening by wonderful volunteers from Grades 7-8. We gather together for these special events to nurture relationships, build community, have fun with one another, and create memories to last a lifetime.

Lands' End sale happening now through February 24!

TCA held its first ever Spirit Week last week for our students in Grades 7-10! Spirit Week allowed our students to grow together as a community with a color day, learn about each other’s interests with a college/career day, and have some fun on Friday with a pajama day. The fun-filled week also ended with a House Dance Competition. It was wonderful to see the joy, creativity, and fellowship our students were able to share together!

TCA took 1st place at a local Junior High Quiz Bowl meet this past weekend! In our victories, we give thanks to God for the gifts he has given to our students for clarity, diligence, and perseverance.

TCA held our Grammar School Semester Celebration where students were given the opportunity to share what they had learned with friends and family. God calls us to celebrate with one another so that we can deepen our relationship and glorify Him. This past semester we saw God’s hand at work shaping hearts and minds with his goodness, and we had a great evening giving thanks to Him!

TCA’s Constitution Christmas Feast took place this week for Grades 1-6, and we had a fantastic celebration complete with a 4th grade play, 6th grade toasts, food, games, dancing, and more! God commands us to feast so we can acknowledge His goodness and have joyful fellowship with one another. This helps us to anticipate and prepare for our eternal feast with Jesus!
