Students
enjoyed local theater on our Friday field trip. We finished up our unit on
eathquakes, volcanoes and plate tectonics and began our exploration into the
Olmec, Maya, Aztec, and Inca cultures. Students began their literary argument
essays in response to Good Masters, Sweet Ladies. Students ended the
Reading Marathon and raised money to support extracurricular activities.
Family Math Night and
Icecream Social will be held March 31st when we come back from break. Students
can earn extra credit or volunteer hours for participating in this evening of
fun and learning!
