Another great week at Titus!

Today was a special day as we enjoyed our PAWS for PRIDE assembly and focused on the character attribute for P ... Pride.

I was lucky enough to serve as the mystery reader! I tried to fool our Tigers, but they immediately knew the mystery reader wasn't so mysterious.

I read one of my favorite children's books and then I discussed how I take PRIDE in being their principal and I take PRIDE in working hard to be a kind and good person.

Please check out some shots from our morning as well as our celebratory Dance Party.

As a reminder, we will observe a school holiday on Monday, January 16th for Martin Luther King Jr. Day and schools will be closed. I look forward to seeing you children on Tuesday!

Have a wonderful weekend,

Mrs. Helen Sclama Zaleski

I have been outside to help with this emerging problem and will ask any cars arriving before 3:10PM to kindly return at the designated time.

I sincerely thank you for working with me to keep all students and families safe during our busy dismissal time.

A gentle reminder for our 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th graders. Please charge laptops each night so that they are ready to be used for learning each morning.

Also, the district issued laptop cases are the best way to project laptops and we encourage all students to use these cases to transport computers to and from home.

Thank you.

We had our Grand Re-opening on Wednesday; January 11th and it was a booming success. Students are again able to purchase supplies needed at this point of the year. The store is located in the cafeteria and is staffed by a responsible group of our sixth graders. This year the school store will be open each Wednesday morning before announcements. Check out the Supply List below to see a list of the items and prices. Happy Shopping!

The Titus History Club is where students who like learning about people, places, and events of the past get together with others who share their interest. Each week you learn something about history and do an activity. We play games, make or build things, watch videos, and sometimes host guest speakers. The winter session is on Tuesdays from 3:30-4:30 PM Jan. 31st - Mar.7th. We welcome returning and new members.

IMPORTANT: Interest in the History Club continues to grow, but unfortunately, we need to put a limit on the number of people in the club. We would love to include everyone who is interested, but we cannot.

Here’s how to sign up:

1. Use this link from January 6th- 18th https://forms.office.com/r/w6MTGYXqKG to enter your 5th or 6th grader into the History Club lottery.

2. On January 18th, names will randomly be chosen to be in the winter session.

3. Everyone will be notified of their status by January 20th .

Note: If your child was on the waiting list for the fall session, and you responded to the interest email in December, a spot has been reserved for your child in the winter session.

If you have any questions, email Mrs. Schorpp hniemeyerschorpp@cbsd.org

As we approach the coldest time of the year, please look over the information below regarding outside recess. I will monitor the weather daily and make decisions on what will be best.

Please be sure that your child is dressed to be outdoors and remind him/her that wearing a coat and cold weather gear is important during our cold Winter months.

Thank you for your help and support.

Looking for ways to help your child’s teacher in their classroom? Or maybe you have some extra items laying around your craft room or kids’ rooms and are wondering if a teacher could use them?

Home & School asked Titus teachers to share with us “A Few of Their Favorite Things” and have compiled their lists into a handy dandy document that you can view HERE. You can see what types of items they could use the most for their classrooms, a list of their favorite things, as well as any dietary restrictions they may have, and what parents/caregivers can do to help them the most.

This list will stay active for the rest of the year, so make sure you check back for updates!

Thank you for your support of Titus and our AMAZING teachers!!!!
