Some of our outstanding 8th grade students were recently rewarded for their hard work in academics by being offered the opportunity to take part in our academic honors programs, Jr. Beta Club and Jr. Scholars.
Jr. Beta Club: Students who had a 3.3 GPA last year qualify to be a member of the Jr. Beta Club. Invitations and permission slips were given to eligible students last week and are due back with the fees to Mrs. Stillman by this Friday, September 20. Congratulations on this accomplishment!
S.C. Junior Scholars Program: I am excited to say that there are more than 145 8th grade students that qualify for this program! Students who scored Exemplary on the ELA and/or Math PASS test, are in advanced classes or are identified as gifted qualify for this honor and are given the opportunity to take the PSAT at Saluda Trail for $14. If you were given a letter today, permission slips and money are due back to Mrs. DePinto by next Wednesday, September 25 if you want to take the PSAT. This is a great opportunity to get a head start on your future!
Yours every step of the way,
Mrs. DePinto
