=Welcome to Grade 8!= = = =Below is some general information you may need as you prepare for the new school year.=

=**School Supplies**= All general supplies including notebooks, pencils, erasers, markers, art supplies, etc. will be provided, but the grade 8 room is not a 'bottomless pit' of school supplies. Please ensure that you have any equipment that you deem to be essential with you when you come to school in August. This may include pencil crayons, pencils, pens, a pencil case, a binder etc...It's important that you stay organized as you prepare for high school.

=Agendas= School agendas will be given to each student at the beginning of the school year. It is imperative that students bring them to school each day, and that parents review and sign them each night. The agenda is a very important communication tool and I encourage parents to use it as a means of sharing information with your child's teachers. All information, including trip permission forms, newsletters, order forms, and field trip information sheets will be sent home in the agenda. I encourage you to check it every day and I thank you for your involvement in your child's education!

=Rotary Schedule= In order to help prepare students for high school, the grade 7 & 8 classes will have a rotary schedule this year. Ramona Ense will teach Math, Science, and Social Studies, and Connie Freeman will teach Language Arts (Reading & Writing Workshop) and Computer Science. If you have questions regarding the curriculum or course content, please direct them to the appropriate teacher. I (Connie Freeman) will be the homeroom grade 8 teacher and function as the primary contact for any general questions or concerns.
