Mrs. Luman's 8th grade Language Arts students wrapped up The Outsiders with a creative one-pager project! Each student captured key themes, characters, and personal connections from the novel using words, images, and symbols—all on a single page. Their work shows thoughtful reading, creativity, and a deep understanding of the story. Pictured that are currently on display in the mid-level building.

✨We are helping students understand that showing self-control means being able to pause, think, and make positive choices—even when they feel upset, excited, or tempted to act quickly.
You can support this learning by encouraging your child to:
⭐Take deep breaths when feeling upset
⭐Pause and think before responding
⭐Practice patience and wait their turn
