Grade 7 students are studying the 1850s and the run up to the Civil War.
Grade 8 students are conducting a mock trial exploring civil rights issues of the 1950s.
Grade 9 students are studying the 17th-18th centuries.
Reminder: Grade 10 students are welcome to the review classes period 4 Mondays or period 6 Tuesdays. They are also welcome to attend the after school session Mondays 16 April to 21 May.
In the 4th quarter, the following changes are in effect:
AIS social studies 7, 8, and 9 will be dedicated toward review for the final cumulative examination or classwork, whichever is more pressing a need for students at that time. (During the first 3 quarters, AIS was dedicated to vocabulary study and reading comprehension practice in grades 7 and 8).
The 9th grade 30-minute periods (Monday for period B class and Tuesday for period H class) will be review for that final cumulative exam. 10th graders are welcome to attend either session because it is the same material as will be found on some 60% of the Global Regents.
