7th Grade News, March 23

It is hard to believe that there are only two weeks until spring break. This past week the Discoverers and Globetrotters went the the Great Lakes Science Center for a field trip. From what I have heard, it was an overall positive experience. This week will see the Pioneers and Seekers go. Hopefully, they will enjoy it as well.

If you haven't already heard, the 7th grade has an incentive trip planned for late May to Swings 'N' Things Fun Park. We went last year and our students had a great time. This incentive is based on student behavior. There should be a contract/permission slip coming home soon if not already with your student. Students cannot receive more than two detentions between now and the event if they want to participate.

That's all for this week.
