Welcome to the 8th Grade Team!!
As a team we believe that everyone has what it takes to be a great student. We place a great emphasis on preparing for high school level expectations with classwork, homework, and projects. To help our students succeed we encourage continuous communication between students, teachers, and parents. We also encourage students to work through difficult times with perseverance, problem solving skills, respect, an appropriate level of independence, and through ethical use of technological tools.
