As you read, All Thirteen by Christina Soontornvat, focus on how the author uses text features and references multiple sources to document this incredible cave rescue. During the first few weeks of school, you will follow the same investigative process to research, paraphrase, and present your own findings on another remarkable rescue from history.  
 

All students in grades 6-12 are required to bring a laptop computer to school each day. Laptops have far more access compared to mobile devices and will expose students to integrated digital tools that will prepare them for future success. This model will allow students and teachers to consistently use technology as a tool for learning, exploration, and organization. More details about the BYOD program:
