The 8th Graders will be going to Tufts University on Friday, March 3rd. This will be part of an ongoing campaign to raise the interest level of students attending college. We will be visiting Tufts from about 8:30 to 12:00. We will see the campus and hear from college advisers.
On Monday March 6th, the 8th Graders will be taking the NAEP standardized test. The majority of 8th graders were chosen. A form went home in January explaining the test. The students have visited the website and watched a short video. Please visit, nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/students/ for further information.
As part of Read Across America, 8th grade students will read to the 4th grade. I have asked them to bring in their favorite childhood book to read to the younger students!!! I will send along pictures from the event.
