UCF Programming Challenge

TMA students, Rachel Dauns, Victoria Perez, James Puig, and Brennan Cleland recently competed in UCF's Programming Contest. UCF hosts an annual competition where teams of 2-3 High School students work together to solve problems and write code to display the solutions. TMA's two teams were among the 128 teams to demonstrate their advanced programming skills.

Annual Writing Competition: Writes of Spring

This year some of our students participated in Writes of Spring, a writing competition organized by UCF Graduate Students in partnership with the Orlando Repertory Theatre. This competition aims to give K-12 students a platform to share their writing talents while contributing to the collaborative work of new theatre.

Congratulations to TMA students who participated and placed in this year’s competition — we are proud of you!

2019-20 Theme Verse

TMA is happy to announce the theme for the 2019-20 school year:

“Open my eyes that I may see the wonderful things in your law.” — Psalm 119:18

Inclement Weather Procedures

Below is a quick reminder of our Hurricane / Inclement Weather Procedures.

In the event of a hurricane, tropical storm or other extreme weather event, TMA will use the following procedures to ensure student safety and maintain communications with parents:

TMA will cancel school if Seminole County Public Schools close. Communications regarding school closure and re-opening will be communicated with TMA families via email, texts, social media, Z88.3, WESH 2, WFTV-9, WKMG-6 and FOX 35.
TMA may likely reopen, after a weather related school closure, sooner than SCPS because we have a smaller population and can recover much faster. Please stay tuned to the media mentioned above for information on when school would reconvene after weather emergencies.
TMA's Administration is committed to the safety of our students and will diligently monitor conditions and make appropriate decisions when necessary.

Please join us in prayer for protection over everyone who is in Hurricane Dorian’s path during the next few days.
