Dear Students who will be in 8th - 12th grade next school year!
Taos High School is excited with the possibility of adding a Springboard Diving team (boys and girls) in the Fall of 2024. We are doing a survey to find out how many students are interested in joining the team. If you want to learn how to do 6 different tricks from a 1 meter springboard and compete at High School Swim and Dive meets, please email:
Your name
Your school email address
What year you will be in next year (2024-2025)
Parent name
Parent email and phone number to Coach Greta: greta.kuehl@taosschools.org
This will get your name on the" interested list" and you can learn more about what the practice and competition schedule would look like. This is a great opportunity for gymnasts, dancers, and other students, grades 8-12 interested in learning a new sport. We will schedule a summer meeting for those interested to learn more and meet Coach Kristie. We can't make this happen if we don't have students interested, so please email if you are the least bit curious.
Thanks!
The 2024 Yearbooks are on sale for $30, cash or check (payable to TCS) no change available. Please pay Ms. Teresa in the office.
