• Congratulations to the 18 TEMS students who participated in the February 27th Connecticut Middle School Debate League (CTMSDL) Tournament. Highlighting the event was the 3rd Place finish in the Open Division by the Timothy Edwards team of Smriti Rajan, Lalitha Papanasam and Sanjay Rajan. The team went undefeated through three rounds of the tournament and narrowly missed participating in the Championship Round. An incredible individual performance was turned in by Smriti Rajan, who was also awarded 2nd Place as the Overall Individual Debater! Congrats to all debaters - see you at the next Debate Tournament on  April 24th.
