The holidays are fast approaching...need a COVID-19 test? We have extra!
Many of the Department of Health provided COVID-19 tests are expiring at the end of the year. Stop by the District Office and take some home with you!
The DO will be open tonight until 7pm, and all day Wednesday, November 23rd.
Ms. Conley, the MS/HS Library Media Specialist, had Mr. Morelli's English class take part in "Book Speed Dating" as a way to introduce students to books they otherwise might not be exposed to.
Students sit at a table in front of one of four menus. Every three minutes they switch tables and use the book that corresponds to their menu to fill out a graphic organizer. After reading the first few pages and checking out the cover, students can make an informed decision about their opinion on the book by answering questions like "is this a book you could be interested in?" "how did the author pull you in?"
Students experienced six different categories of books: short stories, sci-fi and fantasy, realistic fiction, verse novels, mystery and suspense, and historical fiction.
They were also given a book mark to write down books of interest to them. Some of the books were so good - we have a waiting list for them!
Mr. Albright's AP U.S. History class had a convention today of reform movements from the Antebellum period, which spanned the end of the War of 1812 to the start of the American Civil War in 1861. The mock "convention" was a unique way of learning about history!
