Extra Credit!

Today is Mark Twain's birthday!  For extra credit (three points) write down the year Mark Twain was born and his real name.  Due by Friday, December 2, 2011.

No tutoring on November 28th.

     On November 28, 2011 I will be absent; as a result seventh grade tutoring will be cancelled.  Students on the mandatory tutoring list were sent home letters to parents on October 31, 2011 and again on November 21, 2011.  Students should be picked up at 3:00pm this day.  Tutoring will resume its normal schedule the following Monday, December 5.

Stand Up to Bullying!

November 13-19, 2011 is National Bullying Prevention week and to mark the occasion SST-Discovery held a door decorating contest.  Each homeroom class decorated their door and my homeroom, 7B, won third place!

7B, in their "Too Bright to Bully" clothes with our door.

Students chose to create a Lady Gaga likeness, since she often speaks out against bullying.  Her famous meat dress was replicated and students created little monsters (which is what she calls her fans) which they signed and placed under a pledge not to bully.
