All subject areas are involved. Parents have also been invited to participate by reading with their children at home. This is the fifth year that Family Math has been offered. This program gives parents an opportunity to interact with their children in a non-threatening atmosphere with a teaching professional providing directions. Using the ATT Learning Network in classrooms, students are familiarizing themselves with the Internet and the information available for research projects.
Students keep a log of Web sights they visit and the information found.
Seventh and eighth grade students are using our new computer lab. In the eighth grade science laboratory there is a new computer system that allows the students to perform experiments that they would not be able to perform in a typical classroom setting. This computer enables the students to enhance their current curriculum by controlling variables in the experiments. Students help each other to succeed academically through the Peer Tutorial Program sponsored by the Junior National Honor Society. They help each other cope with problems through the efforts of the Natural Helpers program.
