Alabama is now 200 years old, and our students and teachers made some great memories celebrating this milestone in our state’s history! Through art, music, stories, community projects, special events, and more, our schools celebrated the history of Alabama in many creative ways. Several of our students and teachers participated in Alabama's Bicentennial Celebration in Montgomery on Saturday, December 14. TCSS was also honored to have seven of our schools recognized through the Alabama Bicentennial Schools Initiative. These schools received grant funding for projects that linked the schools with their communities. Two of our schools were chosen as Bicentennial Schools of Excellence, an honor which only 21 schools across Alabama received. We look forward to seeing how our students will use what they have learned about the history of our state, to help create a bright future and keep writing the story of Alabama!
