Assignments & Projects 2024-2025		As 8th graders...and now as adults married or on their own in 2014! Pictured above is one of my all-time favorite groups of eighth graders. Why? Well, they were respectful, really cared about their grades, treated their classmates kindly, and always supported each other--never any power struggles and NO DRAMA!! No wonder they went to college and are now experiencing sweet success!
