As the year winds down the halls seem very bare. This is a hallway in the 8th grade pod and it is by Mrs. Evans (SWAT SFA teacher) and Mrs.Murphy’s (WAVE ELA teacher) rooms. They have been great teachers and as this year comes to an end it seems like there isn’t a lot of stuff in the school.

Everyone’s lockers are full as the end of the year is coming up. They are full with everyone’s accomplishments through out the 8th grade!

The vending machine out in the main hall is all cleared out. Coming down to the last few days it looks like they cleaned out this vending machine.
