Today the 8th Grade had our annual MLK Day/Day of Service in honor of our house mentor Dr. King. 8th Graders participated in a variety of activities honoring the vision and spirit of Dr. King, as well as looking at our house theme of creating a just society for all. Below is a brief summary, along with some pictures, of our day!
In the morning we started with our MLK Day Assembly where students, through art, spoken word, and music paid tribute to individuals who have embodied King's vision of how our society should be.

Each 8th grade homeroom also prepared a meal today, bringing in items and cooking them to donate to Parmenter, which will distribute them to families in need in the area.
Many of our students also spent much of the day at one of the three elementary schools. Helping out younger kids with their schoolwork and offering their assistance to former teachers.
