12/20 Science
8th grade students received back a quiz today called "Midsummative 5." I am encouraging parents/guardians to have a conversation with their student about it and for all students to share their quiz with their parents/guardians. Students are strongly encouraged to construct knowledge and make corrections on it. If you have any questions, please call or email.
