Greetings Huskies,

Sports and clubs are a vital part of the high school experience for students. Every TSM student has the opportunity to participate in sports with Mumford High School’s teams while the Husky gymnasium and athletic facilities are being constructed. This athletic partnership presents unique challenges for students, parents, coaches, teachers, and administrators. Please familiarize yourself with the following TSM policies as it relates to athletic dismissal at The School at Marygrove:

• For tryouts and practice
  • Athlete dismissal occurs at 3:50 – 03:55 PM depending on the arrival time of the bus
• For away games
  • Athlete dismissal occurs when the bus arrives at TSM in person.
• For home games
  • Student athletes, coaches, and parents are responsible for arranging transportation to and from home games. Student athletes must check in with the teachers of any classes they will miss and make arrangements to complete the assignments.
  • Student athletes who fail to check in with their teachers will be marked absent and may not receive an extension on any assignments/work assigned during class.

If a coach is requesting a TSM student - athlete report to practice or be dismissed from class prior to 03:50 PM, or 1 hour prior to the start of an away game, it must be coordinated between the student-athlete, the athlete's parent, and the teacher. Parents may come and pick up their student-athlete for early dismissal in order to honor the coach's request. Student – athletes themselves are responsible for any and all class material they miss while participating in sports. It should not be the expectation of the student - athlete, coach, or parent that student- athletes who are dismissed or picked up early for games, outside of the explicit policy, be granted:

• exceptions/extensions to assignments
• special sessions to retake tests/give presentations

If you have any questions regarding the TSM athlete dismissal policy, please contact me directly via email at corey.garrison@detroitk12.org

Mondays through Fridays, the academic day begins at 8:30 AM and ends at 3:40 PM

Our school does not require a uniform, however, students must abide by this dress code:

We are proud to partner with you in educating your child(ren). Helping your child to succeed academically is impossible without your participation. For that reason, the staff would like to extend an invitation to you to attend the Annual Title I Parental Involvement meeting to learn about and discuss various Title I programs offered at the school.

As a Title I school, we follow federal guidelines related to teacher qualifications and staffing, as defined in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). The law affords you the opportunity to learn more about the professional credentials of your child’s teachers and we are happy to provide this information to you. At any time, you may ask the school for the following information:

• Whether your child’s teacher meets state qualifications and certification requirements for the grade level and subject they are teaching;
   
• Whether the teacher received an emergency or conditional certificate through which state qualifications were waived; and,
   
• What undergraduate or graduate degrees the teacher holds, including graduate certificates and additional degrees, and major(s) or area(s) of concentration.

Additionally, you may ask whether your child receives help from a paraprofessional. If your child receives such assistance, we can provide you with information about the paraprofessional’s qualifications.

Our staff is committed to helping your child develop academically and to promoting their success in school and beyond. This commitment includes making sure that all of our teachers and paraprofessionals are highly skilled.
