Dear Tecumseh South and Tecumseh North Families, As you may recall, teachers and staff received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on February 24, 2021. Due to weather, this first dose was postponed from its original date; however, we are grateful our teachers and staff could have this opportunity. The vaccine's initial schedule would have made it possible for our staff to receive the second dose during Spring Break; however, due to the delay, the second dose of the vaccine has been scheduled for each of our teachers and staff by Stormont Vail on March 17th and 18th. Both Tecumseh South and Tecumseh North Elementary schools will have about 50% of their staff receiving their second vaccination on March 18, 2021. Due to the considerable staff reduction, we have decided that it is best to have an additional remote learning day on Thursday, March 18, 2021 for the Tecumseh South and Tecumseh North Elementary Schools. We will then continue with in-person learning on Friday, March 19, 2021. Teachers will reach out to their families to communicate learning plans. We are excited to have all our elementary students back to 4 Day On-Site learning starting March 15, 2021. We understand making these changes is hard on everyone, and we apologize for any inconvenience this will cause. We hope that after our staff can be fully vaccinated that there won't be any more interruptions to the schedule. Have a wonderful Spring Break!

Good Evening, Panthers! Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow is a no school day due to Parent/Teacher Conferences occurring from 8am-8pm. There will be no remote learning. If you still need to schedule a conference w/ your student’s teacher, please call the office at 785-379-5910. -Principal Bivens

Good Morning Panthers! We are in school today. SHHS is the only school remote today due to their staff getting the vaccine. If your student isn’t here, please make arrangements to get them to school or call Ms. Jordan to get them excused for the day. All PreK-2nd grade students & Track A 3rd-6th grade students are in-person today. Track B 3rd-6th grade students are remote. -Principal Bivens

The Young Thunderbirds are a youth tackle football program now expanding into youth flag football beginning this March 2021. We are looking for players from K-6 grades who want to focus on fundamentals and the game of football. As a tackle program we have grown from 1 team and 17 players 3 seasons ago to 6 teams and 102 players last season. We hope that our flag program can be just as beneficial for the youth of the community and as successful.
