8th Grade News
We have so much planned for the 8th graders as they spend their last few weeks in middle school. Please take note of the following events and dates. You can also keep up with these events through the 8th grade website at http://teacherweb.com/TN/ams/amburgey/
Dr. Sonya Marsh will come to visit Monday, April 28 - Thursday, May 1, in the English classes. She will talk about high school registration information as well as the differences in high school and middle school. Then on Thursday, May 1, at 6:30 in the AHS auditorium, she will hold a parent meeting to discuss some of these same items. With new graduation requirements set by the state for this upcoming freshman class, we encourage all parents to attend.
