Nightmare on Puberty Street is an age-appropriate live theatrical performance about four young people on their journey through adolescence. As the characters wrestle with the question, "Am I normal?" they learn to cope with the changes affecting their bodies and minds. The frank and sometimes funny program shows students how to deal with many of the issues of puberty, including how to handle pressure to be sexually active, how to build self-esteem, and where to find help if faced with feelings of depression or thoughts of suicide. By the end of the performance, students understand everyone goes through changes during puberty, and there are resources to help them adjust to those changes.
If you do not want your child to attend this assembly, then please return the opt-out form that will be sent home with your student. It will get turned in at the attendance window.

From the Math Department
At this point, all students should be able to access their math books at sso.cpm.org by signing in with google. Please remind your student that their book is available through a website so they can access it from any device or computer with internet access. If your student is having any trouble accessing the textbook have them double check that they are using the correct URL. We encourage you to explore your child's math book to see all the resources they have available to them through their ebooks. They have access to etools, which allows our 8th-grade students access to Algebra tiles (an integral part of our equation solving practice), and our 7th-grade students access to probability tools and integer tiles, which we are using now. The students also have access to homework help on all homework problems through the ebook. We encourage students to use this tool as it is stated, merely for help. Please keep an eye on your student and make sure that this is being used as a tool to check work or to help them get started, not as a means to copy answers. This will not help them on tests and quizzes in class if they are using homework help in an inappropriate way. We also encourage you to use the parent portal as a regular tool to check in on the progress of your student in their classes and encourage them to speak with their teachers about any assignments or topics they have questions about.
Thanks,
The Kenilworth Math Department
