SPRING CONCERT
Thank you to Mrs. Kirsch, Mr. Barber and Mr. Cassidy for a fantastic concert at Neshaminy High School. Kids and parents were proud and happy. Thank you to our staff musicians who played to support the show: Mrs. Davis, Mr. Wyatt and Mr. Blaydon. Super cool and Well Done!!!!
On Tuesday May 14th members of the Temple University Police K-9 unit visited Tawanka. During their visit the K-9 officers showed our students; dog obedience, apprehension and detection techniques. Our students really enjoyed the presentation and the chance to interact with the Law Enforcement community who keep us safe.
This is a reminder that there is one week remaining in the NxStop beta test. NxStop is a free app available exclusive to Neshaminy parents. It aims to improve school transportation by letting you know when your child’s bus will arrive at their stop, and by letting you see the bus on the map in real time.
NUTRITION
Our last fruit of the year from Giant was grapes. This was a fun way for the students to try new fruits and vegetables this year.
Tawanka would like to thank Giant Food Stores, especially Mr. Tim Feoli, store manager, and Ms. Karen Pomykacz, Assistant manager Customer Experience. We also need to thank Mr. Wright for getting this program started.
CONGRATULATIONS and THANK YOU!!
Neshaminy recognized long-term employees with service awards and also recognized two of our teachers who are retiring at the end of this school year.
Thank you to all for all of you time and dedication to our school and our children.
Mrs. Crisp and Mrs. McNickle, you will be sadly missed.
JEANS DRIVE
We are having an aerial photo taken for an Art For The Sky project coming to Tawanka. The photo will have the students in the form of the eagle in the sky. We will be having a Jeans Drive and collecting blue jeans to make the background sky for our Eagle. Any size jeans are fine, also any condition. We will be laying them on the ground. After the picture, we will donate the jeans to a local charity. Please send jeans in by May 31st.

ENERGY
