TIGER TIMES
Dear Titus Family,
Some reminders...
PSSA Testing begins Monday for students in Grades 3,4,5, and 6. I have encouraged our Tigers to focus on a good night's sleep and a hearty breakfast in preparation for each day of testing. I've also shared that "we got this" and we are a family who supports each other in all we do, and this includes PSSA testing. The building will be in quiet mode during our testing mornings so that we all can focus. Should you have any questions about our state testing, please reach out.
This coming Tuesday, school will be closed for Election Day. Titus is used as a polling station for elections to accommodate our right to vote and engage in this important civic duty. Students will enjoy a "day off".
This past week, our students participated in Reading Olympics at Warwick Elementary, and I am delighted to share that it was a resounding success! Our young readers showed incredible dedication and enthusiasm for reading, making us all very proud. I want to extend a special congratulations to all the participants for their hard work and commitment to literacy.
As we move closer to the end of the year (8 weeks left), we have many exciting culminating learning opportunities planned. Field Trips are being planned, Field Day details are being discussed, and End of Year Party information will be shared by classroom teachers soon. Be sure to keep updated with our Tiger Times over the remaining weeks.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and always please reach out with any questions.
Your Proud Principal,
Mrs. Helen Sclama Zaleski

Student Placement
Throughout May, we will begin the process of assigning students to classes for next year.
My goal is to ensure that each child is a part of a class community that meets their needs and empowers their growth.
We assess each child's individual needs based upon input from the present classroom teacher, school counselor, reading specialist, and principal. If you feel that we would benefit from additional information, please email me at hzaleski@cbsd.org with information that you feel would be helpful to consider.
Thank you, Titus Family.

CBSD VOLUNTEER INFORMATION
DON'T FORGET CLEARANCES ...
Titus will expect all potential volunteers to complete their paperwork for clearances prior to assuming any volunteer/chaperone role within the school. This will ensure we are in line with district and state expectations.
Who Needs Clearances: An individual who is responsible for the child's welfare or has direct contact with children. Pennsylvania law requires all persons having direct contact with school children to obtain background checks and clearances. In the best interest of the safety and security of our students, Central Bucks School District required the submission of these clearances prior to volunteering during the school year. Approved volunteers are given an identification card to be presented at the school (along with your photo ID, such as a driver's license) when volunteering. Please allow 7-10 days after you have submitted your online application for receipt of the ID card.
Additional information and steps on how to complete your clearances can be found on our district website by clicking here.
