Grade 8 Overview, Field Trip and DC Trip info
In 8th grade the classes are organized in a modified block schedule. Students have all classes on Monday, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. On Thursdays students attend their 1st, 3rd, and 5th period classes. On Fridays students attend their 2nd, 4th and 6th period classes. See the Bell Schedule for details.
The 8th graders eat lunch separately as a grade level except on Wednesdays when they eat with the 7th graders.
8th grade classes have two common field trips every year. Field trips in the past have included:
Exploratorium
Six Flags
8th grade, starting in 2017, also has an optional King Washington DC Trip
