Welcome to 8th grade social studies! This year we will be discussing American History, from the beginning. At the bottom of this page, which is a rough outline of the year, is a link for each homeroom. Click on your homeroom and you will be directed to your calendar. Also, if the topic is underlined, that means you can click on it and be taken to another page. For example, I will be posting your study guides online, in case you lose your paper. So if you click on the link that says study, you will be able to access your study guide!
