Caila Smith's 8th grade students have been working all year on a cumulative project called Genius Hour, an opportunity for students to research and present on a topic of their choosing.
Students are asked to consider: What do I care about? Who am I? How can I contribute to my community? What problems do I see in our world?
This year, two students are focusing their efforts on raising money for local organizations and programs. Please consider helping these young people in their endeavors to make their community a better place by supporting causes that they care about!

What a great night as the Lady Braves Basketball team took on our cross town rivals Saratoga on our 8th grade night with the Braves Cheer team performing their IESA State routine at halftime. the 7th grade lost in a battle 35-27 and despite a 3rd quarter defensive stand to bring the score within 2, the 8th grade lost as well 18-12.
