The Annual Hawk Fund begins Monday, September 21! This important campaign provides essential support for Tennessee Christian and helps us continue creating meaningful opportunities for our students, faculty, and families. Participation is crucial, and our goal is to reach 80% participation among our families. Every gift, regardless of size, makes a difference and demonstrates our community’s commitment to Tennessee Christian. Together, we can make this year’s Hawk Fund a success!

Trike-A-Thon (September 23) 
 

Giddy up and ride! Our Learning Cottage Preschoolers are saddling up for a farm-themed Trike-A-Thon on Wednesday, September 23, at 10:00 a.m. Our little Hawks will pedal, ride, and have a rootin’ tootin’ good time as they cruise through this fun-filled event. It’s sure to be a special morning full of smiles, laughter, and plenty of preschool fun!

1st Omada Competition! (September 23)
