Grade 8-9 Transition Day
Over the next several weeks, we will be holding transition activities for our 8th graders to prepare them for high school. Our MYP Coordinator, Fang Shelly will be visiting with each student to discuss arts and language choices for 8th graders soon. Additionally, 8th graders will spend most of the day at the high school on April 25th to sit in on classes, speak to students and get a feel for the "Preston Road experience." This will be an exciting day for our 8th graders and I'm sure they will want to talk to you about their day at the dinner table next Monday! If you have any questions about our 8th grade transition day or course choices in 9th grade, please contact Fang Shelly. ([email protected])
