Students are admitted by lottery with preference to students in Districts 5 & 6. TCCS has grown by one grade each year and graduated its first 8th grade class in 2020. TC provides over $1 million each year in expertise, services, and other resources. TC faculty and graduate students support student learning through curriculum development; student teachers, tutors, and interns; academic enrichment; professional development for teachers; and fundraising.
