WOOHOO! WE GRADUATED...NOW IT'S UP TO YOU (THE UNDERCLASSMEN) TO KEEP IT GOIN! ;)


As most of you know the class of 09 graduated not to long ago.WOOHOOO! As we worked our way through those 3 years we took along every piece of knowledge that was givin to us to each grade. Now the knowledge that our 8th grade teachers had passed on to us will be used to it's full extent in high school. I would like to say thanks! to all the teachers that made graduating for me possible. Such as... Mr.Locker, Ms.Shah, Ms.Scinta, Ms.Charles, Ms.Covert, Ms.Rowe Small, Ms.Peynado, Ms.Esther, and so much more who helped me get through my learning struggles,as well as life struggles. What I have to say to you... the next generation...is to keep faith, and try your hardest in what your learning. Also never say "I can't do it",cause your teacher,and your peers,are there to help you, and you could do anything you set your mind to. If we could do it...SO CAN YOU!! It's up to YOU, as the new 8th graders to keep the tradition going, and next it will be the 7th graders, and on and on and on... BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!, IF SOMEONE SAYS YOUR STUPID OR WRONG...PROVE THEM WRONG WITH YOUR MIND SKILLS, AND YOUR SCHOOL WORK!!. This post isn't to put pressure on you girls and guys, but to motivate you to do what you have to to make yourself a better, and smarter person. And also to let you in on a lil secret... The more your teachers test you and make things harder on you, your gonna feel like they don't want you to succeed. BUT OOPS ARE YOU MISTAKEN!!... they are testing you.. to see if you have potential. All your teachers want you to succeed!..if they didn't want you to succeed they wouldn't be there to teach you! DON'T GIVE IN TO PRESSURE! If you do, it'll only make things harder!... Also (my last remark, I know it's alot but bear with me..LoL) Be aware of your actions and how you treat others,and how you treat yourself, cause your actions comes with consequences, weather they're good or bad,they come with them...so make sure you do what's right for you and everyone around you...
Over and out, signed, CHRISSY MENDEZ...
P.S JOIN STUDENT COUNCIL, IT'LL HELP YOU TOO, AND GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO MAKE YOUR SCHOOL A BETTER PLACE...KIMANI AND I DID... I'LL BE BACK TO CHECK UP ON MY TEACHERS AND THE SCHOOL... OK! Final goodbyes from your former 8th grade rep.......For now.....................

Some Advice From Us To You

We feel like we did a pretty good job getting through our three years in middle school. We struggled a little when we first started 8th grade and though we adjusted and worked our way to where we are now, there are some things we wished we would've known before we actually walked into the 8th world. Heres some tip's that we wished we had in the beginning of 8th grade...

Come into class with an open mind because your going to be exploring things deeper than just learning. But don't worry it'll be fun.

It's time to grow up. The year will go super fast and before you know it you'll be off to high school. So don't waste any time being scared to ask of a question or to raise your hand.


5 Things We Didn't Do In Sept. But We'll Always Do Now...

Numero Uno:
Analyze my books cos you know we love to read!

Numero Dos:
Try to join clubs. We weren't in them in September but we'll always try to do that because it really helped us this year.

Numero Tres:
Teachers are here to help you.ASK FOR HELP IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!! In September we didn't really ask for help ,but as we progressed we started to think if we need help then get it!

Numero Cuatro:
In September we didn't really write in specific , detailed , transitioned,and exampled paragraphs.Working on this all year helped us to create these exotic paragraphs.
