Happy March, 8th Grade Families!
Spring is just around the corner, and March brings with it important observances. Women's History Month gives us the opportunity to recognize and honor the countless women whose contributions have shaped our world through their courage, wisdom, and leadership. This observance is particularly significant now, as it reminds us of the ongoing struggle for equality and the vital importance of diverse perspectives in addressing today's challenges. Our students are learning about groundbreaking women in science, politics, literature, and other fields who have overcome barriers to make lasting impacts on society.
Our 8th grade students are continuing to celebrate Black History Month in their "Houses" and through upcoming challenges, extending our commitment to honoring diverse histories and perspectives beyond February.
March 17th marks St. Patrick's Day, a time when many celebrate Irish heritage and traditions.
Don't forget — Spirit Week begins next week as we countdown to Spring Break! Students can show their school pride through daily themes, so check the schedule in the newsletter for what to wear each day.
Please take a moment to read through the entire newsletter carefully, as it contains important dates and information about upcoming events. If you have any questions or wonderings, please don't hesitate to reach out to your child's teachers, the main office, or myself!
Wishing everyone a wonderful March!
Ms. Ernvall
