August Olympic Edition
Talley Tiger Headed to the Olympics
Marquis' long jump competition begins at 7:10 p.m. Saturday in Japan – 6:10 a.m. Saturday in Delaware. The finals are Monday at 10:20 a.m. in Japan, meaning they’ll air in prime-time Sunday night on NBC at 9:20.
The Talley Middle School graduate will be making his Olympic debut. He made the 2016 team but couldn’t compete because of a torn Achilles’ tendon. See yesterday's article on DelawareOnline!
Talley Middle School has a wide variety of after-school sports and clubs for your child. Check out the opportunities below!
Preparing for the new school year!
We anticipate a normal return to school and are excited to welcome all of our students into the school building. Currently, masks and social distancing protocols are still in effect. We are planning for all students to be in-person every day; the school day will start at 8:10 am and end at 2:55 pm. We will know and communicate the health protocols for students mid-August.
We want families to know that we are committed to making this a memorable and enriching year. Your child will receive their class schedule on their first day of school, but there are many things they can do to prepare for an amazing school year ahead:
What to do to prepare:
- Relax & recharge
- Read the summer book and more
- Mark your calendars for summer events
- Shop for supplies
- Join a fall club and/or sport
- Contact us with any questions

We Have Sports Too!
If you would like your student to participate in sports, your child must have a sports physical on file in our school nurse's office before they can participate in any team activities.

Student Schedules
Don't worry! Students will receive their schedules on the first day of school. There will be plenty of support to help your student navigate the building and their schedule.
6th Grade Summer Home Visits
It has been nice meeting so many of our new families. Our staff members have been reaching out to schedule home visits with you to introduce ourselves, talk a little bit about our school, and answer any questions you may have so that the first day feels a little less overwhelming for both parents and students. If you have any questions please feel free to email Ms. Milionis and Ms. Feder.
