The TASIS School in Dorado

TASIS Dorado is proud to celebrate Arturo Marxuach Cárdenas, who has been selected as one of four members of the Puerto Rico National Team competing in the XVIII Olimpiada de Matemáticas de Centroamérica y el Caribe (OMCC).

Arturo earned his place on the team as one of the four highest-scoring students, age 16 or younger, in the fourth phase of the Olimpiada de Matemáticas de Puerto Rico (OMPR).

The OMCC will take place in Durango, Mexico, from August 10–13, bringing together nearly 50 outstanding students from approximately 15 countries across Central America and the Caribbean.

This prestigious competition includes a 9-hour exam, divided over two days, with problems in Algebra, Combinatorics, Geometry, and Number Theory.

Arturo will be guided by team leaders Dr. Luis Cáceres and Dr. Omar Colón from the Universidad de Puerto Rico, Recinto Universitario de Mayagüez.

We are incredibly proud of Arturo’s dedication, talent, and continued excellence in mathematics. After earning a Silver Medal at the XVI OMCC in Honduras in 2024, he once again represents Puerto Rico on the international stage.

Congratulations, Arturo! 🇵🇷👏
Your TASIS Dorado community is cheering you on.

• $10,000 to the TASIS Dorado Teachers Fund, helping provide professional development opportunities for faculty while supporting innovation and excellence across the school.

• $10,000 to the Interact Club, strengthening student-led service initiatives that positively impact communities across Puerto Rico through partnerships with local nonprofit organizations.

🐠✨ Finding Nemo KIDS: A Celebration of Creativity, Teamwork, and Growth ✨🐠

This year, our 69 fifth-grade students, the Class of 2033, brought Finding Nemo KIDS to life through a remarkable journey of creativity, collaboration, and personal growth.

Guided by our dedicated TAP5 faculty team—Fabian Rivera (Musical Director), Karla Santana (Vocal Teacher), Edwin Colón (Choreography Teacher), Evy González (Set & Prop Design Teacher), Beatriz Rivera (Makeup & Costume Teacher), and Charleen Quiñones (Director)—students spent the year developing their talents both on and off the stage.

From actors, dancers, musicians, and vocalists to production crew members, costume designers, makeup artists, and set and prop creators, every student embraced a role that matched their interests and strengths. Together, they learned that great productions are built through teamwork, responsibility, perseverance, and the unique contributions of every individual.

More than a performance, Finding Nemo KIDS provided students with opportunities to explore their creativity, build confidence, develop new skills, and experience the power of working toward a shared goal.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the parents, faculty, staff, and community members whose encouragement and support helped make this experience possible. Your partnership played an important role in creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Congratulations to the Class of 2033 on an outstanding production, we are incredibly proud of all you accomplished! 🎭💙
