Reminder Titan Meal Changes for 2022-2023 School Year! For the past two years, the federal government provided special funding to the school lunch program. This allowed the District to provide free meals to all students during the school year and to offer a free summer meal program. Unfortunately, the government ceased providing those funds at the end of the 2021-2022 school year. What this means to families: No free meal program for this summer Meals will return to regular prices for the 2022-2023 school year Federal Free and Reduced Lunch program is available for qualifying families https://sites.google.com/.../titan.../free-and-reduced-meals (click the link and the application is located towards the bottom) The District encourages families who may qualify to complete a free and reduced meal application. Information on the program is available per the link above or on the District website. (click families, click titan meals) This includes application instructions, income eligibility guidelines, and the Free and Reduced application. If you would like to receive a paper copy of the application, please contact the Tea Area School District Business Office at 605-498-2700 ext. 5.

The concert may be livestreamed via the following link: LINK: https://youtu.be/qhiAhhyMXaE We sincerely apologize for those of you who will not be able to attend the concert in-person or if you are unable to view the livestream. Mrs. Toso-Mahowald and her students have worked very hard throughout the year to prepare for the concert. We made a decision to postpone the concert due to the possibility of severe weather, and we want to make sure not to jeopardize the safety of our students, parents, and staff members. We did consider the possibility of moving the concert to another evening, but due to schedule conflicts for some involved as well as High School gym availability, we were unable to do so. A final note, students will be asked to dress in CONCERT BLACK. We appreciate your patience and understanding. Thank you, Middle School Administration
