WORLD STUDIES

Our Projects. 

I believe students learn best by doing.  Projects are a great way for students to apply what has been taught in class.  Therefore, we will have many projects assigned this year.  Visit this page frequently to stay up to date on project requirements and due dates.  And like always, if you have questions, please feel free to contact me.
