Poe Partners
Our First semester at Poe is done and we are moving very quickly through our Eighth grade year. The students in Middle School Partners have completed their Health credit and are already moving into their 2nd course. Students in Middle School Partners participated in their first field trip and their first Community Service Project. We have more field trips and service projects planned for the next semester.
We want to take this opportunity to wish everyone the best of the Holiday Season and we want to wish everyone a Joyous and Happy New Year!
Poe MS Food Bank Delivery Service Project
Where do we start?
The students had to figure out how to line up the food delivered.
How do we organize the food?
Teamwork and leadership skills were required to make this event a success and to run smoothly.
Who helped?
The students in 7th grade and in 8th grade MSP were organizing, and delivering the food items starting at 8 am through noon. The students took shifts and organized themselves to make sure that our social workers and staff assisting had the man power to run the food delivery.
Our First Field Trip of the Year!
We're off to the Nutcracker at the Tobin Center!
Meeting the Cast of the Nutcracker
Part of our experience was learning to interact with the performers and understanding theater etiquette and expectations for a great show.
We're Here!
How We Learn
Peer to Peer Teaching and Learning!
Students in classes are paired up to make learning more at ease and teachable. We practice student purposeful talk and peer teaching as much as we can in class.
Poe's First Annual History Meltdown!
Students in the 8th grade were invited to participate in the first ever History Meltdown Saturday School. Students refreshed and sharpened their history skills while having fun and meeting new students from surrounding schools.
Poe's First Annual History Meltdown!
