Congratulations Eighth Grade!!!


What a great job our 8th grade did last night presenting their speeches, singing their class hymn, and even having one of our 8th graders putting together their video presentation! Wow! God has richly blessed this class with many talents. I'll be praying for all of you, and pray that your first year in high school will be a wonderful experience. Continue to put your trust "in Christ alone", and no matter what your life may bring, you'll be a success.

Power Point Presentation

Due to the fact that the 8th grade will be confirmed this Sunday, I will grant extensions for those of you who are not able to get together to work on your presentation on a week night. The purpose for putting students in groups for this project, was to help those students who either don't have access to a computer on a regular basis, or for those who don't have a power point application on their computers. It is impossible to allow class time for both the 7th and 8th grade to work on the power point, because there are currently only 6 computers available to work with, which are located in Mrs. Lippert's room. Since power point presentations are required quite often in high school, I felt it was important to make sure that they have experience presenting them in class. Thanks for your help.
