Let Faith Be Our Guide

7TH AND 8TH GRADE SCIENCE and 8B Math

My name is Mrs. Biji Abraham. I am honored to be the 7th and 8th Grade, Science teacher. 
     I have been involved with TCA for a number of years; first as a parent of 4 TCA students and now as a member of the faculty. It is my goal to work with you to give your children the tools they need to succeed in Science. Together we can Dream, Believe and Succeed!

In order for your student to properly achieve their goals they must: 
·         Come to class prepared with textbooks, notebooks, and pencils 
·         Complete homework assignments 
·         Ask questions 
·         Respect for themselves, teachers and peers 
Please feel free to contact me via email @ babraham@trentoncatholic.org or by phone 609-586-5888 ext # 206  edit
 

 

W.I.S.E. focuses on science, engineering and math!  Research has shown that many women do not follow their passion for the sciences.  Here at TCA we want our middle school girls to feel empowered to succeed in the Sciences.
