If at all possible, plan to attend. The students, directed by Mrs. DiPace, did an exceptional job on the road tour. The twenty seventh graders designed webpages which will be used by the sixth graders as a learning site for a unit on Egypt. The computer technology students created pages that test students' knowledge of Egypt, link to answer pages, and list various websites where students can find information about the questions on Egypt.
