alamo.jpgThe eighth grade students have had a very exciting time since the last newsletter.
First, all congratulations to students and Mrs. Weaver for an outstanding 88% pass rate and numerous commendable performances on the TAKS reading exam.  The students recently took the Mathematics exam and we are looking forward to similar success.

We attended a live theater production at the Convention Center followed by a guided tour of the Alamo.  It was a great Field Trip and some of our students experienced their first live stage production.  The eighth graders also sponsored the Spring Fling dance which was enjoyed by many 5th-8th graders.  The end of the year is fast approaching and information about the eighth grade field trip and end of year celebration will be coming home to you soon.

Written by Susana Mendez   

math1.jpgEighth grade math is challenging, but fun. We are going to learn many new concepts. This coming year we will also be using graphing calculators in certain areas of study. This will enable eighth graders to get ready for high school. We will be learning pre-algebra and algebraic concepts. I have high expectations of the students. We did well on the TAKS test last year and am expecting greater results this year.
