Welcome Team Unscreen

4/28/2024 6:03 am

Concerned about the effects of smartphones and social media on your child's social and emotional development? Join Team Unscreen, a new parent group at Tuscan! 

Team Unscreen is striving to create an impactful shift away from smartphone-based childhoods. The team's first event will be on Wednesday, May 29, with Max Stossel, the founder of Social Awakening.

During the day, 3rd-5th grade Tigers will attend an assembly where Max illustrates some of the specific ways technology is designed to be addictive & distracting, provides tools to help combat these designs, and opens a much-needed discussion among peers about the impact of phones & social media on our lives.

At night, there will be a parent session at Tuscan where Max will  illustrate some of the specific ways technology is designed to be addictive & distracting, highlight how that's impacting our kids’ minds, and give recommendations on addressing some of the challenges you and your family are facing. This presentation will conclude with open space to discuss what’s working and not working in our households. Buy your tickets for Technology & Your Kids; a Parent’s Night Out Speaker Event you won’t want to miss!

We need Volunteers for the Tuscan Art Show!

4/7/2024 8:24 am

The annual Tuscan Art Show is scheduled for Thursday, May 2. 

Ms. Snyder, our art teacher, is hard at work selecting pieces of artwork from each and every Tuscan student to be displayed

But she needs your help with the final preparations. 

Please sign up here for the Matting Crew and/or the Hanging Crew.

Check the Sign Up Genius for more details. 

The first meeting for Matting Crew is Monday, April 8, any time between 3:30 and 5:30 p.m. 

Can't make that but still want to help? You've got two more chances! Ms. Snyder will be in the Art Room on Tuesday, April 9 and Wednesday, April 10 from 3:30-5:30 p.m. The explanation of the matting process should take about 15 minutes. Stop by anytime during those hours! 

Are you ready for the eclipse? Stay safe!

4/7/2024 8:20 am

At about 3:24 p.m. on Monday, April 8 (that's tomorrow!), New Jersey will experience a near-total solar eclipse — about 90% of the sun will be blocked. 

Maximum darkness comes exactly one minute after our Tigers are released from Tuscan. And exactly when they might want to look up. 

Read these NASA safety tips about the eclipse with your family so that your Tigers will be prepared at dismissal tomorrow. 

And here is a video that will help you construct a DIY eclipse viewer. 

Have fun, and be safe!
