The school counselor monitors academic progress and credit completion. Progress reports are sent home quarterly. Grades can be monitored on a daily basis through PowerSchool. All parents and guardians, as well as students, receive a letter from the guidance department at the beginning of the school year with a username, password and instructions for accessing grades. Please email the guidance secretary if you have misplaced your account information.
School counselors are available to assist students with academic and career challenges. Students remain with the same counselor until graduation. Our counselors also serve as liaisons between teachers and parents.School Counselors

Student FAQs
-
Do I need to purchase a uniform?
Career uniforms are an important part of the culture of professionalism and excellence at TCHS. However, due to the current circumstances caused by COVID-19, TCHS will be utilizing a flexible uniform policy through the beginning of the 2020-21 school year. Students who already have a uniform are encouraged to wear their uniform but are not required to do so. TCHS encourages all families to purchase a uniform when they are able to, as this policy will be reexamined as the school year progresses.

What happens if I am planning to take a vacation or trip out-of-state after I start at TCHS?
As you make vacation or travel plans throughout the school year, please be aware the Governor and PA Department of Health are recommending PA residents who travel to a list of 20 states to self-quarantine for 14 days upon returning to PA. For a complete list of states on this list, please visit the Department of Health’s website. If you travel to any of these states and therefore need to quarantine upon your return to Pennsylvania, you must notify your TCHS administrative team so that your student can receive virtual instruction during the 14 days quarantine period upon your return.
