8th Grade Students and Parents
Later on in the semester, we will be doing a project in class that involves students creating a cereal box for someone in American History. Before you send any cereal boxes to the recycle bin, please consider sending them in to my class. We will need at least 87 empty cereal boxes to cover all students.
Thank you!
