Welcome Back

Welcome Back to Wheeler!

It's Quarter 3, and there is a new BIG GAME coming up - the HSA! In Quarters 1 & 2, we took quarterly assessments to practice for the comprehensive HSA, which will be administered in April. This test will cover ALL Grade 7 concepts and will give each student a level of mastery - Exceeds, Meets, Approaches, or Well Below Proficiency. Our goal is for every student to achieve an "Exceeds" or "Meets" on this challenging test, and Ms. Park and Ms. M are committed to helping each of you practice and prepare for game day!
