I want to congratulate you on how far you have progressed and to wish you a

will continue to build stronger character in each of you, to provide a foundation for future
endeavors, and to gain support system that is second to none.
I would also like to commend Mrs. Lillie Harris along with her committee for a job
well done. Thank you for taking the time to work with and to share your expertise with
the contestants.
Again, congratulations and best wishes to each of you.

A LETTER FROM LILLIE HARRIS
2020 PAGEANT COORDINATOR
Potential candidates for Miss TCHS and court have requirements
they must meet before they can be considered during the selection
process. Academia, discipline, character and teacher recommendation are
components that play a very strong role in determining who is selected.
It is necessary that each young lady embrace this process in order
to be fruitful on this journey. Through practices and various projects,
they have to come to terms with the fact that they must work as a team
and determining each other’s strengths and weaknesses makes for a
better team. They have laid the foundation for great sisterhood and have
become a great team of leaders. Women typically do not flock together
in terms of leadership but this is a process where young women can
learn to work together and appreciate each other’s differences. This is a
very important quality to perfect not only as a professional, but as a
strong woman.
A Miss TCHS legacy has been created, led by former court
members who assist the future court during their pageant process. These
former students are now adult women who have admitted that they felt
comfortable during the various interviews, workshops, and conferences
they encountered post-graduation because they learned how to conduct
themselves accordingly as part of the Miss TCHS court. Some of these
ladies have even initiated similar organizations in their communities
because they understand the importance of this type of program. A bond
has been created. Tonight’s contestants will be adding to this bond by
cementing their place in the Miss TCHS legacy.
Congratulations to the 2020 Miss TCHS Court!

Life is A Twisted Road
Life is a twisted road dominated by
Unexpected twists and turns,
However at the end of the day, it is from them that we learn.
And in spite of being so hard to cross,
The flame of hope ensures that you’re never lost.
So keep the flame of hope always bright and strong.
For as long as hope reigns, nothing can go wrong.
Love Always,
Your Mother

Congratulations babygirl,
