Meeting for 7th Grade Families
Dear 7th Grade Families, 
 
Please join us on Tuesday, May 9 at 7pm in the media center for an informative meeting on what to expect in 8th grade. Mrs. Underwood and a few 8th grade parents who have gone through this process will be there to help answer your questions and share their experiences. We know we have some 7th grade parents that just went through the 8th grade process last year and may not need this information again, but we would love to have you come to help answer any questions that come up! 
 
Thank you!
