This is the last week to pre-order a yearbook!
We will only have a limited amount of extra copies once they are delivered, so pre-order is the only way to ensure you get one.
Pre-order pricing is still $25 dollars, price will go up to $30 after pre-order is closed

Mr. Doane's 6th graders have been busy with science experiments!!! Some students worked with a partner while others chose to work independently. All of the students were able to talk about their experiments. Some students were already making a new hypothesis
Mr. Taylor's 6th graders are studying ancient cultures and preparing for some big projects. Today, students were learning about Mayan masks and the significance of all the details and colors that were used to create their masks. Students will be creating their own unique masks with the support of Mrs. Dove's STEAM program and Mrs. Link's Art program. Finally, students will complete a research paper where they will gather information and cite sources. Ask your 6th grader about mask ideas!
