Congratulations to All-State Chorus students Cooper Blocher (left, 7th grade) and Calix Lary (right, 8th grade)!
All-State Chorus invites the best middle and high school students from across Georgia to participate in auditions that test students' singing abilities through scales, sight-reading, and song preparation. Thanks to their after-school and at-home practices, both boys passed the first and second auditions and will have the honor of being part of the 2025 All-State Tenor-Bass Chorus in Athens, GA, from February 13–15.
Mr. Young and PGM are proud of Cooper and Calix's hard work, participation, practice, and achievements! 🎶🎵
Mrs Justice’s students have been working hard on this month's interdisciplinary lesson! In science, they discussed the advantages and disadvantages of renewable and nonrenewable resources. In ELA, they applied what they learned in science as they read and analyzed information about electric vs. gas-powered cars. Their STEM journals are looking good and showing lots of creativity and critical thinking! 🚘💡⛽️ #STEM #Interdisciplinary

Dr. Gatz's ELA students have been busy thinking critically! They collaborated to write paragraphs using flawed reasoning and then rotated to label the types of flawed reasoning used in paragraphs written by their peers. They also were challenged to narrow down the roughly one million words in the English language to the most important twenty. Both activities led to some very engaged and interesting conversations! ✏️ #PGMwrites
8th grade math classes used the Three Cs to complete a performance task involving scatter plots! They investigated whether or not a relationship exists between height and shoe size by gathering data and creating scatter plots. They collaborated to examine and analyze the data, draw trend lines, and write equations for the lines of best fit. 👟📏#ThreeCs
