Eighthgrade

Eighth Grade

The Eighth grade will be focusing on high schools this year. They will be attending Open Houses and shadowing. In December they will take the high school entrance exam. By the end of February they should know where they will be attending school next year.

After this excitement, they will be looking forward to the trip to Hershey Park at the end of May. Also, Graduation is on the horizon with the hopes of getting out of school earlier than the rest of the school body.
