6th and 7th Grade Families,
Paw Paw Middle School is offering the option for your student to take Algebra in 8th grade. Your 6th grade or 7th grade student would complete an online course over the summer taking either 7th grade math or 8th grade math, respectively. At the end of the summer, your student will take a test demonstrating they have achieved proficiency in the standards for the course they took over the summer. If they pass, they will move on to either 8th grade math or Algebra.
Early next week, your student will receive a Google Form in their Google Classrooms. If this option interests you, please have your student fill out that form and then you will receive additional information regarding this program.
Thank you!
Girl Scout Troop 90639 recognized the staff at PPMS as Heros with cookies. Thank you to Arabella, Alyssa, Emma, Lydia, Macy, Melanie, and Sarah!
