HAPPENING IN OUR DISTRICT TMS

Ms. Holmquist’s 7th grade ELA students entered an escape room and had to break the codes for four locks to protect society’s ability to argue or we would all have to have the same opinion. Students had to show their understanding of claims, evidence, reasoning, and counterarguments. What a fun way to learn!

TMS Chess had their last tournament of the year on Saturday, April 1st, traveling to the Kalahari, in Baraboo, to attend the WSCF State Classic.

Approximately 130 students from all over the state competed in 3 divisions: K6, K8, and Open. Three sixth graders, Nyomi Grace, David Ziemiancyzk, and Ben Boyles competed in the K6 division and brought home a third place trophy (out of 6 teams).

Eighth graders Joanna Stryker and Kush Patel, along with 7th grader, Gavin Libbey, and 6th grader Aiden Gonzales, competed in the K8 division and brought home a 2nd place trophy (out of 8 teams).

Kush Patel also won 5th place as an individual in his division. What a great way to finish the season!!
