Relay for Life 2017
Two hundred Tamanend 8th and 9th grade students participated in Relay for Life 2017. It was a beautiful day in every way. Our students raised close to $20,000 this year contributing to the over $200,000 raised by all five CBSD middle schools. Congratulations to all the Relay for Life participants and supporters. We always talk about Tamanend Together, but see what CB Middle Schools can do together? Incredible!
Girls STEM
Last Thursday, 18 of our 8th and 9th grade girls visited Delaware Valley University to participate in Girls STEM 2017. Mrs. Gamble and Mrs. Wilhelm joined the girls as they learned about different types of STEM activities and workshops with such Titles as “The Chemistry Magic Show, “From Fashion to Space”, “Nitty Gritty Nerdy Tech Talk” , What Microbe are you?”, and “Empowering Women: What kind of engineer should you be”. Some of the presenters included NASA, Peco Energy, the National Audubon Society, and Dow Chemical Company.







Throughout the year, Tamanend staff members look for examples of students showing Respect, Achievement, and Responsibility... R.oA.R. Those students are given "Tiger Tracks" tickets which students can enter into a drawing. Each Friday, Mr. Boyle draws one student's Tiger Track and announces the winner on our Tamanend Today Show. The winner can pick from a number of prizes including great coupons from Subway, Rita's, Randazzo's, Yogurt Tree, and Moe's!
The following students were recent weekly winners!
Kevin C. Nominated by Mrs. Higgins for responsibility. | Marina K. Nominated by Mrs. Szagola for responsibility. | Diane K Nominated by Mrs. Mancini for achievement. |
