In 8th grade English last week, students completed a nonfiction book club project for the memoir, "Discovering Wes Moore" by Wes Moore. Out of the choices of projects to complete, one student created a movie poster and another student created a playlist of songs that could represent the lives of the two Wes Moores. #MaroonPride

Students in 8th grade social studies have been learning about the stock market and how it operates during our unit on the Great Depression. Students were given $10,000 to invest in companies of their choice. Over the course of the unit, we are tracking the prices to see if students have made or lost money. It has been a rough week for some! #MaroonPride
