It is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to the grade 8's. Based on numbers, the school has decided to distribute the seven grades 8's in my room among the other grade 8 classes. I'm sad to see them go, but I'm very excited about working with the remaining grade 7's.

Monday will be a day of transition as we learn to adjust without our friends, so I only can only ask that those grade 7's who did not finish their alpha-biography please find time to work on it over the weekend.

Progress reports are going home on Monday.
