The Birthday Book program is your opportunity to donate a book to our school library. Based on the needs of our library, books have been pre-purchased and are on display in the library. You may purchase a book in honor of your child's upcoming birthday, in memory of a loved one, or to commemorate a special event. An "in honor of" sticker will be placed in the front cover of the book and it will be added to the library collection. Your child will be the first one to check it out in the fall. Come to the library any day before, during, or after school to browse the collection.

We will wrap up this school year with The Counting Principle. Remember to review your math skills over the summer. It is important that you are secure in math when you come back to 7th grade and Pre-algebra.  

 Don't forget to use classzone.com as a resource over the summer.

Congratulations 8th graders. I wish you success and happiness in the years to come. I enjoyed watching you mature during your years in junior high. Remember the values you learned here, work hard,  and stay true to your faith. Take advantage of the many wonderful opportunities that high school offers so you become a well rounded student. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. You will be missed.

I strongly suggest that the students continue to use classzone.com. over the summer.It is a wonderful resource for review and practice. I also suggest that you get a graphing calculator early in the summer so you have time to work with it before high school begins.
