7th Grade Field Trip
We are excited to announce that the 7th Grade will travel back in time to the Renaissance this fall. On October 11th, both Journey and Legacy teams will spend a day at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire in Manheim, PA. This early field trip will give our 7th Graders experience with the language, culture, and life of the Middle Ages and Renaissance time periods which they study in Social Studies class. Additionally, it gives our 7th grade the opportunity to come together as a 7th grade class. The trip will cost approximately $45. Stay tuned for more information once the school year starts.
Library Volunteers Needed
If you are looking for a way to be involved on a regular basis, Tamanend needs volunteers in the Library. Please click here if interested in being a Volunteer Library Assistant.
Who Wants to be Linked in Unity?!
Throughout the year, and especially in Tiger's Eye, we support our students as they learn to find their voice and "stand up" for themselves and others. Once our students leave Tamanend and go on to CB South High School, building student advocacy is continued and broadened through a program called "First LINK." As a part of LINK's service outreach, those South students work with our Tamanend students to foster community building and servant leadership. We call this "Link to Unity" or L2U for short.
We will have our first L2U on Saturday, November 11th for all interested 8th and 9th graders who have not been linked before. To receive an invitation to L2U, students (or parents, guardians, teachers) need to fill out a quick nomination form. We will send invitations based on nominations in late October. That means we need nominations by October 20. Students who return the signed permission form first will be the ones who are admitted to L2U.
L2U starts at 8:30 and ends at 11 a.m. Being that it is an action and learning packed two-and-a half hours, students must commit to attending the entire session (no leaving early). Participation is free and student participants get a L2U t-shirt at the end.

So, if it has been your dream to be the Tamanend Tiger, now is your chance to tell us why. Complete this Tiger Mascot application survey. Approved surveys will be used to select students to be our Tiger at pep rallies, assemblies, 6th Grade Orientation and more! Go get 'em, Tigers!
Student Emergency Contact & Information
Each year, the Central Bucks School District asks our families to fill out a Student Emergency & Information Form. Parents/Guardians can take care of this now and we ask that you complete your family’s Student Emergency & Information Form online by September 20, 2017. For more information, see our Aug 5th Tamanend Together newsletter.

Tamanend Dances Tamanend dances are for currently enrolled and attending Tamanend students ONLY. Bringing or inviting “guests” to any of our school dances at Tamanend is prohibited. For all dances, students need to show their current Tamanend Middle School I.D. as part of admittance. In order to participate in any after-school event, including dances, a student must have arrived to school no later than 10:30 a.m. on that day. Dress for the Fall Dance on October 6th is casual. Dress standards apply. The Dance starts at 7:30 and ends at 9:20 for 7th grade, 9:30 for 8th grade, and 9:40 for 9th grade. | Winter Dance & Dance Pick up The Tamanend Winter Dance is a more dressy, but not formal, dance. It starts at 7:30 p.m. The dance is over at 9:30 p.m. The dance is planned for December 1 with a weather backup date of December 8. For all dances, we ask that those families driving to Tamanend from the direction of Kelly Road, please drop off and pick up in the bus loop. Those families that approach Tamanend from the Bristol Road direction, please drop off and pick up using the main lot (by the tennis courts). Following this traffic pattern will alleviate some congestion on Stuckert Road and keep traffic moving smoothly. | Freshman Day & Dance Freshman Day and Dance are tentatively slated for June 8th, 2018. These events are only for currently enrolled ninth grade Tamanend students as they are a special time set aside for our Freshmen to enjoy a final remembrance of their middle school years. While our Freshman Dance is truly special, there is plenty of time in our students' lives for prom dresses, tuxedos, limos, and fancy proposals for dates. Whether students arrive at the dance in groups, by themselves, or in pairs, they all experience a wonderful time. Please remind your child of this fact when discussion of Freshman Day begins. |
