This afternoon our 6th grade students attended an assembly with Mr. Litton from Action Karate. He talked to them about the importance of goal setting and how to take it one step at a time to make a lot of progress in the end.

Last Friday, 7th grade students presented skits for their Interdisciplinary Unit. Building on knowledge and skills gained in Spanish and Performing Arts classes, students examined how to communicate without words. The skits acted out how to communicate without sharing a language. Interdisciplinary Units are an important part of the IB MYP. They ask students to bring knowledge from at least 2 subject areas to solve real world problems.
