  • March 12, 2020: Emergency School Closure

    Tilden is following the state-ordered emergency school closure order. We miss our students already, but teachers are working hard to ensure they can all continue learning (offline and online) during the closure. 

    And Jan, our wonderful Kindergarten aid, is one of the dedicated Tilden staff taking time during the state-ordered emergency school closure to clean and disinfect! ❤

    Stay well, and keep your 👐 washed!

    6164489328_27bff7f67c_zWow, these students asked to clean up the neighborhood during recess—that’s dedication!

    They chatted happily and shared that delightful feeling of doing the right thing as they removed trash from around the block.

    Tilden students can volunteer to clean up the neighborhood for one recess each week. Thank you to our community service volunteers!
