History Fair

The seventh grade students will be participating in our first annual History Fair. Students choose a Chicago themed topic to research and analyze. They then created a display of their work and will present them at the fair. All students have been working on this for months, and were excited to turn in their projects today. The actual fair will take place on Thursday, March 22nd, right after school. I look forward to viewing their exhibits!

ISAT Testing

ISAT testing is going to be taking place next week. The sixth and eighth graders will be testing with their first periods, and the seventh graders will be testing with their fourth period classes. Students will be testing everyday for the first three periods of the day, with a scheduled break in the gym. On Tuesday they will take the first two reading tests, on Wednesday they will have the last reading test and the first math test, and on Thursday they will finish the last two math sections. Then the seventh graders will continue testing on the following Monday with the two science tests. Please remember to encourage students to eat a healthy breakfast and to get enough sleep!
