Greetings!
Welcome back!! We hope each of you had a wonderful and relaxing winter break. We are all ready to get started with the second half of the school year and ready to see what amazing things our students will continue to do this semester.
The start of this semester should require only slight adjustments as the only schedule changes for students is a change in their semester connection (if applicable). Please remember that semester connections are assigned randomly and therefore requests for changes will not be granted.
Our basketball teams pick back up with their season beginning on Thursday at Brookwood HS versus Crews MS and on Saturday at South Gwinnett versus Snellville MS. Please continue to come out and support our basketball teams and cheerleading squad this season.

outside food is permitted in the cafeteria or in the lobby for students per our school cafeteria rules. Parents are welcome to come and eat inside the cafeteria with their student but need to plan to purchase a cafeteria lunch or bring a lunch from home and sit with their student at the adult table inside the cafeteria. Our lobby here at Trickum does not accommodate room for students or parents to eat lunch outside the cafeteria, and we need this area available for all guests. Thank you for your understanding!

Parents: Please take the time to set up a MyPaymentsPlus account for your student. It is a very important tool to have during the school year. The features include Meals & AutoPay, Student Account Management, Products & Events and Digital Forms. Not only will you be able to add money to the account for your child's lunch, but you can also pay for special activities during the year and also take care of signing documents and forms directly online.

Keep an eye on your account!

Don't forget to keep an eye on your child's breakfast/lunch account over at
MyPaymentsPlus. You can make life easier by setting up alerts when the balance runs low. Just look for the "Low Balance Notification" box, towards the top of the screen.
MPP also has a neat feature where you can use the "Auto Pay" button to automatically add a dollar amount of your choosing when your balance gets low.
