T.C. offers a student pick-up and drop-off for students who do not reside in our school district. We send a bus to the Boys & Girls Club in Tipton to pick up and drop off our TC Students. In Howard County we have 2 locations. We pick-up and drop-off at Crossroads Church and the Kokomo South Branch Library. There are forms that must be completed for your child to ride these routes.

The Open House is from 4:00 to 6:00. The Bus Meeting will be right after this at 6:00

SUN BUCKS CARD ISSUES
Card PIN Errors
IDOE is receiving reports from schools regarding the PIN issues SUN Bucks card users are experiencing. The help line is currently experiencing a high volume of calls. Please share the following tips with households to resolve basic issues before calling the help line:
The selected PIN cannot be a common sequence of numbers (1234 or 9876), repeated numbers (1111 or 8888), contain two or more repeating numbers (i.e. 1288), or more than two sequential numbers (i.e. 1238).
The zip code must match the zip code where the card was sent.
The date of birth must match the child on the card and must be in the format of mmddyyyy.
The system times out quickly. If there is a delay putting in any of the required information, it may be a timing issue. Suggest they write out all the numbers in the order they will be requested. This includes the card number, zip code, date of birth (for the child on the card), and the PIN they would like to use.
If households continue to have issues, they can call the SUN Bucks helpline at 317-234-4528 to escalate the issue.
Our summer school kids are being treated to breakfast this morning. Thank you Mrs. Palmer!
