    8 Honors – we are working hard toward our Math A exam on June 14th at 1:15 pm. Students may be released from exam after 2 hours and may stay up to 3 hours.

    We are wrapping up the year with graphing quadratic equations. Factoring quadratic equations to find roots, quadratic formula, and solving systems of equations.

    8th – We are working hard on percents. 8th and 7 Honors have recently been "employed" at a local car dealership, "selling" cars and "earning" commission and calculating their check. Having "home expenses" to pay, making investments to save to buy their own car.
