What's happening: Last week, Smith Middle School students began their collaboration in preparation of the Grade 8 Profile Projects. Students met with their Profile of a Graduate Project groups in the library select topics and begin preliminary research.
Why it matters: This is a pivotal project for the grade 8 students as they apply the Ramsey Profile of a Graduate Competencies to real-world projects aimed to impact their community. Students were asked to target a realistic and tangible action project where they could bring about change.
What’s Next: Student groups will meet again next month to begin developing an action plan and devise realistic bullet items to promote the change they are targeting. Projects will be completed and presented by June!
Big Thanks to our Grade 8 Social Studies teachers- Mr. St. Thomas, Mr. Taylor, Ms. Clinton, and Mr. Abma- for guiding students through this process!
