The LAST Distance Learning Calendar!
Distance Learning Calendar
We hope you're doing well and still hanging in there with the stress of distance learning. We are happy to announce that this will be our last distance learning calendar! Traditionally, at the end of 8th grade, we go on field trips and enjoy a host of other group activities. Since we cannot do those things, we thought giving you some time at the end of the year to catch up would be helpful.
Please keep checking PowerSchool, and submit any late or missing assignments!

Traditionally, we invite 8th graders to give speeches at graduation. We are looking for any 8th graders who are interested in giving a speech to add to our graduation video. If you are interested, please submit your speech to Ms. Lanfear by Tuesday, May 26th. Once your speech is approved, you will have the chance to come to school to record your speech. Please email Ms. Lanfear if you have any questions.
Get your school work done early over the next few days, because we're going to have some beautiful weather this week!
