Hello Students and Parents,

We have a couple of projects going on right now.

The Civil War magazine project is a class activity and home project. The students are given some class time to work on the project, however, all the work cannot be completed in class. Therefore, some outside work will have to take place. This is a group project, but some students have decided to work on their own.

The Explore Georgia Project should be on going. This project is due March 23rd. Some students were given a pink sheet by Mrs. Henry, those students have a due date of March 3rd for their first paper. It does not matter what event they decide to visit first.

As always, please feel free to email with me with questions or comments.
