The End is Near

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." (Thomas Paine)

Your journey in 7th Grade is almost over. Think about this--this time next year, you will be a week away from graduating to the High School. Just two years ago, you were walking across the stage at the elementary school.

Next year, you will face many new challenges in the 8th Grade. How do you think Paine's quote above will relate to your journey next year and beyond? Mrs. Wright has been kind enough to offer us a Question and Answer Session with some of the current 8th Graders. If you have any questions about 8th Grade, please publish them in a comment.

Remember to work hard and be proud of what you accomplish. Also, check out some of the pictures from our field trip to the PA Grand Canyon. Mr. Ellis

Project Blog

Starting Thursday, we will begin a project that will take us to the end of the year. Part of the project will incorporate the use of a Project Blog. You can check it out here. I'm pretty excited about starting this. We will also be using a Wiki for the project. Has anyone heard of a wiki before. I'm sure you have all heard of Wikipedia. We will be building our own Wikpedia for this project. Click here to get a definition of a Wiki. Click here for our wiki website.
