Message from the TCS Technology Department: The issues with TCS Rooms data appears to be resolved. Thank you for your patience as we worked on a solution. If you're still experiencing problems with your child’s Rooms account, please contact your teacher, school, or the technology department directly at avandergrift@k12.wv.us.

February 1st kicked off "Love the Bus Month" which emphasizes the importance of school buses, viewing them not merely as vehicles but as essential elements woven into the fabric of education. By celebrating and honoring the yellow school bus and its drivers, we reinforce our commitment to nurturing safe and inclusive educational journeys for every student. In doing so, we ensure that this cherished tradition remains a cornerstone of our communities, driving forward with pride and purpose.


Message from the TCS Technology Department: This afternoon, we identified an issue with our district's student information system (WVEIS) not syncing properly with Rooms, primarily affecting Elementary School data. We are actively working with the company to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. Our goal is to restore syncing as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience and will provide updates once a solution is in place.
