8th Grade Information Night Presentation - Presented on February 4, 2019
Attention 8th Grade Parents and Students:
On Thursday, February 14, Mounds View High School is having a speaker come and talk to all of their students. They also made arrangements for that speaker, Joe Beckman, to talk with our soon-to-be ninth graders. He'll start here at Chippewa during our first period and then will go to Mounds View for the rest of the day to talk to all of their students.
Joe Beckman sent along this video to share with students, staff, and parents in preparation for his visit. We will show it to students and staff, and wanted you to see it as well. We are excited to have Joe talk with our eighth graders -- we've heard from many people he is an inspirational and engaging speaker. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you!
