Advanced Learning Department News
The Advanced Learning Department has developed new science extensions that are based on the Amplify Units which will be live for Quarter 2. Remember that extension lessons and Checks for Understanding are also available for ELA, Humanities, Math, and Social Studies. These extensions are all posted by your child’s classroom teacher. If there are any questions about where they are posted, please reach out to your child's classroom teachers. 

Students can also access the AL extensions in Advanced Learning Google Classrooms for each grade level. The codes for joining those classrooms are as follows:
6th grade: pou4dl2
7th grade: b4lmnsu
8th grade: mh6hlgz
Heading Indoors
With the colder weather upon us, the loveliness of eating outside as entire grade levels at Camp Hamilton is rapidly coming to its fall conclusion. With any luck, we will be outside to eat a few more times before the snow flies. We will return to regular lunch times under the evergreens once again in spring!
