What's TAACO?

TAACO = Taking Action and Creating Opportunities


Teachers are working hard to identify what opportunities will benefit students best. In the coming weeks students will follow the TAACO schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays to address their learning needs. At Irons Middle School we will take action to create opportunities that will help students be successful.
