Each year, students enrolled in all Academy District 20 schools are required to complete a Federal Impact Aid form. The Federal Impact Aid Program helps provide funding to all D20 schools, including TCA. The State of Colorado has several federal properties (i.e. military bases, offices, and subsidized housing) that are exempt from certain local and state taxes. Because this land and these employers are not taxed, D20 loses critically needed tax revenues. For students whose parents are in the Uniformed Services, employed on a federal property and/or live on a federal property, or civilian employed on federal property, D20 applies for Federal Impact Aid. Please return this form to the school no later than the week after fall break.

**A calendar of this year’s activities/events can be found here!

1. National Honor Society Food Drive--Monday, October 19 - Friday, October 30

From October 19th through the 30th, we will be collecting non-perishable food items in the CP atrium for The Salvation Army to "Fill the Shelves, Share the Hope." A completely free casual day will be earned if we collect 500lbs of food! This Food 4 Casual, if you will, would happen on the Wednesday and Thursday before Thanksgiving Break. Please join us in this act of charity to help others for the holidays!

2. Picture Retakes--Tuesday, October 27, 11 AM - 1 PM

This is the final opportunity for students to get a picture taken for their student ID and the yearbook. If your student is on campus on Tuesdays, he/she may get a picture taken any time during this window. If your student is not on campus on Tuesdays or is a college student who only has classes at PPSC but who has not yet had a picture taken for their student ID, please have them stop by to get this taken care of on this date.

3. STUCO Pancake Breakfast--Wednesday, October 28 and Thursday, October 29

All students are invited to enjoy pancakes and hot cocoa after 1st and 2nd periods on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Gluten-free options will be available. FREE for everyone courtesy of Student Council!
