Update Regarding Prom 2020
We have received several questions regarding our Prom, which is scheduled for Saturday, May 16. The district is closely monitoring the executive order from Governor McMaster and how that order may impact our ability to hold the Prom. The decision not to cancel Prom at this time in the hopes that some of the current restrictions from the executive order are relaxed before May 16. We will notify you immediately if we get additional information. We will make a final decision about Prom at the beginning of May. Thank you for your patience as we monitor the impact of COVID-19.

SC Schools to Remain Closed Through April 30th
(3/24/2020 / TRHS Webmaster)
In response to the spread of COVID-19, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster ordered all K-12 schools in South Carolina to close immediately, effective Monday, March 16. The closure order currently extends through April 30.
School district leaders have been preparing for this eventuality for the last few weeks and are providing lessons to ensure students continue to master important content. These lessons will be pushed out electronically for 3rd-12th graders via Google Classroom or Echo. Packets will be provided for younger students through teacher websites for printing at home. Students without internet connection or needed devices can pickup prepared packets at school or contact the school for delivery if transportation is not available. Alternately, students with transportation can connect to Wi-Fi in the parking lots of any Greenville County School between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Children who have a district-issued Chromebook at school will be allowed to pick those up for use at home. eLearning began on Wednesday, March 18.
At this time, IEP/504 meetings are suspended, though specially-designed instruction will continue. We are seeking additional guidance from the U.S. Department of Education.

Spring Sports Start and then Suspend
(3/11/2020 / TRHS Webmaster)
The spring sports teams were scheduled to begin last week but weather caused many events to be canceled. On Wednesday the boys' tennis team, boys' soccer team, and varsity baseball teams all hosted teams from different schools in their first home games.
The boys' soccer team hosted Clinton. Saska Rauhala, an exchange student from Finland, scored the Devildogs' only goal with under 19 minutes remaining in the first half. Clinton scored a pair of goals late in the half in a three minute span to take a 2-1 lead at halftime and that score held up as neither team was able to score in the second half.
The varsity baseball team hosted Daniel. The Lions jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the first inning and led 13-0 after three innings. The Devildogs were able to score in the following innings but the Lions won the game 19-8 in six innings.
The boys' tennis team hosted Hillcrest and came away with a 4-1 win.
