Tonight was the 1st Sponsor Meeting of the new TCS High School.  Each student in the school is required to have at least 2 adult sponsors chosen from among family, neighbors,  and friends. All of the students attended along with their sponsors.  After introductions, Tom explained the importance of sponsors as not only supporters of their own student, but also as part of the adult network for all of the students in the school.
