Hi 6th,7th & 8th Grade,
WOW, it's the Last Day of School! Where did the time go? Before you "TAKE OFF" for Summer vacation, here's what we did in our final week. The Solar cookers were so creative and even though we had a cloudy day the hot dogs still cooked and the large marshmallows began to melt. The students had fun building the ovens and waiting to see who's was the best. The 6 and 7th grade Spelling Bee class winners were Maureen MacLeod and Dominic Capparuccini. Dominic was the overall winner. Congrats to both students!

Here's a few school reminders: 7th and 8th grade- You received your Rubric for the Invention Fair so please follow it as you would the experiments. Remember, the invention is to be made by the student, so use houshold items to create the invention. This should not be a costly thing unless you choose to make it. Your Invention cards- are the same as your experiment cards- Question, hypothesis-, Prediction- If/then statement, Materials, what you created or did, and results, conclusion, and how your invention applies to your everyday life. For the 6th grade- follow the scientific method and the rubric you received.

The 6th grade did an awsome job with the end of school Mass. The students in the choir sang beautifully and our readers, greeters and presenters did a great job too!
Thank you for making the Closing Mass a beautiful presentation to God.
