Tiverton Middle School students participated in a mock election this week to vote for the new RI Congressman. Students went to the polls in the TMS library and marked their choice on official ballots provided by the Secretary of State's Office. They also cast their ballots using the vote tabulator machine.
Students in Mrs. Costa's social studies class have been learning about the election process, the importance of voting, and comparing voter turnout rates in RI. They designed infographics to display the knowledge they gained and shared their findings while interviewing our next generation of voters, Tiverton High School seniors—special thanks to Mr. Landoch and his students for partnering with TMS on this project-based learning activity.
Congratulations to our 2023 Tiverton District Teacher of the Year, Staci Del Deo, who was honored at the Rhode Island Department of Education’s WaterFire celebration in Providence.
