8th grade parents, Class shirt money is due Monday! Also, a few weeks ago I asked the kids to bring in recipes for our 8th grade class project for the auction. I told them they could just take a picture of the recipe. They need recipes for the following: appetizers, side dish, salad, main, and a dessert. We are compiling all of our favorite family recipes. I am hoping to get started on the book next week. I have been behind on updating pictures, so I will do that this weekend. :)

The 7th grade has been utilizing technology this week. Earlier this week they used their computers to be detectives in finding out if the Boston Massacre was an accident or premeditated. They had a “detective book” that they used to write down their evidence. Now they are using their phones to scan QR codes to learn about the Boston Tea Party, another event that lead to the Revolutionary War.
