A Message from Mrs. Lang!

Hello 8th Grade!

Well I know this week cannot possibly top last week with our trip, but it's still going to be a great one! Thank you all for doing such an amazing job on the trip--myself and Mrs. Schroeder were so impressed with your manners and the way you helped the 1st Graders--way to go! While there may not be a trip this week, we still have fun stuff coming our way! In Reading, we will prepare our mock trials for, "The Tell-Tale Heart." In Religion, we will wrap up the Marks of the Church and you will take a test on each of these Marks. Lastly, in Social Studies, we will focus on all of the industrial changes taking place in the United States from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. There is also a dress down day this week, the 8th Grade Parent Meeting, the Middle School Movie Night, and Trunk or Treat! Wow! Buckle in, folks! 

Peace and Love, 

Mrs. Lang
