Resource Room News

January was quite an eventful month: midterms, new students, academic fair, and more. Congratulations to our students whose study skills paid off and who were exempt from any of their midterm exams. Congratulations to those who took their midterms and did well. And congratulations to our 11th graders that passed an RCT or two!

We also welcome 4 new Chinese students and an American Student from New Jersey. We look forward to getting to know them and we’re glad they can join us in the adventure of learning through the last half of the school year.

Part of the adventure is working through all the phases of the academic fair process which helps ideas come to life. This month very interesting topics have been explored and research started. Some of the topics included skate boarding, gymnastics, basketball, terrestrial and jovian planets, the origins of chocolate, baking a cake, Puerto Rican cookies, volcanoes of Hawaii, Hawaiian culture and language, and international flight. Do you get the feeling some students are really hungry and some are ready for warmer weather? We look forward to seeing all these wonderful ideas blossom into research papers, projects, and presentation boards by March 18th.

Mrs. Kemp and Mrs. Hampton
