Superheroes (aka parents and volunteers) were out in force, racing around the clock to transform Tilden’s campus into the ultimate superhero hideout. Their mission: to impose mandatory fun, excitement, humor, joy, and sugar upon all of Tilden’s students. Thank you, Superheroes, for your dedication (and time and effort and creativity) to such a worthy cause. You have given us all truly wonderful memories!

The Welcome Back Picnic at Lincoln Park truly felt celebratory! With such a huge showing of friendly Tilden community faces—old and new—along with delicious potluck fare to share, the atmosphere was, well, typically Tilden: warm and inclusive, with a strong sense of community. Thank you, Tilden families!

Graduation, followed by a family and guest reception, followed by a class celebration on Alki—an eventful day, indeed. The 5s have officially launched, and we’ll miss them. Best wishes, 5s, and please visit!

Launch day for the fifth-graders was a soaring success. Having built their own rockets and circuitry, they celebrated each successful launch into a cloudless Seattle sky. What a day! Congratulations, 5s!

Oh, but it truly was something: a spectacular performance by the 5s! Congratulations, fifth-graders, on your hard work, your teamwork, and your accomplishment! What a treat for your Tilden community! We are all so very proud of you! (Shakespeare would have loved it, too.)

Philadelphia was the place, and 1776 was the date. It was the meeting of the Second Continental Congress, and the Tilden fourth graders lived their parts. The play was the culminating event to celebrate the students’ understanding of how our independence was won.

It was a normal Monday in the halls of Tilden, when suddenly a group of walking, talking books paraded through the halls and classrooms! As it turns out, it was the third graders, who were celebrating a book project called Become Your Book. What an exciting day for this group of readers, as well as the rest of the Tilden community.
