  • PJ Day was an unbelievably successful event! Thanks to all of you who made contributions to the children of CCMC who are fighting cancer. The total donation from TEMS Staff and Students came to $700!  What a gift this is for CCMC! The top team contributor is the Pacific Team with a total donation of $87. The top HR contributor comes from the Indigo Team, Mrs. Stamper's HR #355, with a donation of $47. A shout out goes to Mrs. Bergstrom who collected her team's envelopes, counted all the monies per HR, and submitted her team's total which saved us a lot of counting time! During this holiday season of giving, on behalf of the peer mediators, we would like to thank all of you who made donations to a very worthy cause. Happy Holidays! Enjoy a happy, healthy and peaceful holiday season.

  • Friday, December 14th is PJ Day for the Kids Day! Hope you'll join in to support kids with Cancer while also raising funds, awareness, and hope! PJ Day for the Kids kicks off its 8th annual event with a mission to not only raise money, but to honor the brave kids fighting cancer and serious illnesses at Connecticut Children's Medical Center. Join us as students and businesses across Connecticut wear their PJs for the kids. 
  • Wondering how this event started? A 2nd grader named Nick Wesoloskie decided he wanted to do something for kids when his baby sister, Charlotte, battled cancer. Thankfully, she is now cancer-free. He wanted to honor the survivors, those lost, and those still in the fight of their lives - in their PJs - for days, weeks or longer.
  • Since 2011, thousands of children in Connecticut have worn their pajamas to school in support of pediatric patients at Connecticut Children's Medical Center. To date, more than $375,000 has been raised for the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders <https://www.connecticutchildrens.org/search-specialties/center-for-cancer-blood-disorders/>. Every year, PJ Day for the Kids inspires more and more school children and business leaders to become involved. 
  • We are stronger together and, with your help, our collective statewide support will continue to make a tremendous impact on the care Connecticut Children's can provide to thousands of children and families.
  • From new, safer, life-saving treatments and individual, targeted, genetic therapies to financial and emotional support for the entire family, your donations to PJ Day for the Kids are making a difference for the children we serve.
  • So, on Friday, Dec. 14th, donate $1 or more to wear your PJs in support of Connecticut Children's Medical Center Foundation. Thank you for your support in raising funds, awareness and hope for these brave kids!
  • Students are raising money to help out baby snow leopards. Bracelets are on sale for $2 in the mornings and during sixth grade flex between Sage and Lime teams. All donations will go to help the struggling snow leopard species. Thanks for your generosity!

  • Don't forget, MathCounts will meet tomorrow morning at 7:00 am.  This will be out last get together before the Holiday break.  See you at MathCounts tomorrow morning.  

  • Entertainers cast will meet after school in the auditorium for a preliminary script read-through. Cast members with named roles, please sit next to your double-cast mate if there is one.

  • Today for lunch... In the Create line you can have the Chicken Fajita, in the Grill line you can have Chicken Cordon Blue and in the So Deli line you can have your choice of deli sandwiches.  Have a great day, do your best,  and remember to always strive for 5!

  • Good morning TE let's take a look at your forecast. Today temperatures will be only getting into the mid thirties during the day with mostly sunny skies, hopefully that will help the temperatures rise a little bit. As we head into this week temperatures will drop a couple degrees from today and tomorrow, they will only be in the low thirties each day, luckily I am seeing a warm up within the next week. During the evening and tonight temperatures will be in the upper teens which will create a pretty heavy frost for the morning, but as we continue the week our low temperatures will drop even more into the low teens. Luckily, we will be seeing sunny skies for the whole week until the weekend where we are watching a storm develop.  If the storm does get more serious, which I am not worried about, I will let you all know. Jordan Cosman TETV Morning News, guys, back to you.

  • A new charity has come to Timothy Edwards! Three sixth graders, Peter Nielsen, Gavin Foran, and Mark Romano are beginning a fundraiser for the Snow Leopard Trust, and they need your help.  The Snow Leopard Trust is a non-profit organization that helps to save endangered snow leopards in the wild.  Because they keep none of the profit, the Snow Leopard Trust depends largely on donations from supporters. Peter, Gavin, and Mark will be manning their stand at the intersection between Lime and Sage teams until 8:00 in the morning, and between 1:25 - 1:45 (sixth grade) in the afternoon. The fundraiser will run Tuesday through Friday of this week, while supplies last.  Any donation is accepted, but remember that every donation of two dollars or more will earn a specially designed Snow Leopard Trust wristband! Thank you for your support in helping us save the snow leopards!
  • Today for lunch... In the Create line you can have the General Tso's Chicken, in the Grill line you can have Philly Cheese Steak and in the On the Go line you can have your choice of deli sandwiches.  Have a great day, do your best, remember to always strive for 5!
