Officer KIND Project Rebooted for Term II
“The Officer Kind Project”
The Officer Kind Project is back! Originally created by Officer Bonczar, the program’s purpose is to showcase the thoughtfulness and kind nature of our student body. More importantly, it is designed to recognize individual students for selflessness and thoughtfulness. This project will once again help us shine light on the core values of the school and identify kind acts that otherwise may have gone unnoticed.
Last trimester, the program ran successfully and three deserving students were selected per grade as the winners. In fact, the participation was so great that we also selected five students for honorable mention as well. We encourage all staff and teachers to please take part in this project. The input we received from the student population as well as the staff really allowed us to shed light on the school’s core values at work. If you know of a student that has gone above and beyond, please don’t hesitate to nominate that student by filling out a “Kindness Ticket” and place it in the labeled box located outside the main office. This second run of the program is currently active and will end on February 9th.
If you have any questions regarding the project, please feel free to reach out to us at the following:

Robotics Club is on a roll and needs your help
The Robotics Club at TMS is having a fundraiser. We are raising money to be able to compete in the Vex Robotics Competition. In order to do this we are selling HEXBUG© Wahoos! Wahoos are small robotic fish that to activate you have to twist its head and it will whir to life! The HEXBUG© Wahoo can swim at various depths and can be used in any form of water from bathtubs to pools. It is a great first pet for all ages. We will be selling the Wahoos for $5 each here at school. The Tyngsborough Middle School Robotics Club is thankful for any support and donations. For more on HEXBUG© Wahoos, go to:

Snowshoe Anyone?
Why snowshoeing? This activity is a lifestyle activity that can be done throughout the years, is low impact, and a great way to get outside during those long winter months! It utilizes cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength and endurance, and balance. Students are learning that being physically active does not require traditional team sport participation; they can be physically fit in a variety of ways!
We ask that if you have snowshoes to donate for students, please bring them in to the front office!
