Our 8th Graders went on a trip to Feed My Starving Children. We did some great community building with each other by helping nourish kids so they get the chance to build up their communities as well. Really proud of the work they did! #WeArePeterson #CommunityLeaders #Compassion

This week the 8th grade took a trip to NEIU to watch the performance, “We Will be Better Tomorrow”. One of the big ideas: communicating in a world full of distractions. Our students loved the performance and group activities that followed. Thank you to @NEIU for having us!

Our 8th graders got to hear about all of the great opportunities at Mather High School today as the high school application process approaches. Thanks to @MatherPrincipal and one of our former Panthers, Ali, for taking the time to speak to our 8th graders today!

This week the 8th Grade began its partnership with our 2nd Grade buddies. It was great seeing the students support their younger peers and connect with them. We’re very proud of their work in building relationships. #WeArePeterson #CulturalAmbassadors

Today, the 8th Grade advisories raised their banners. Each banner has a section for College Graduates, Community Leaders, Cultural Ambassadors and Grit. We love this project and seeing the pride and energy that the students put into this project. #WeArePeterson

This week some Peterson 8th Graders wanted to build a more inclusive and welcoming environment at Peterson. So they got to work designing, cutting, and posting affirmations. On all 400 lockers in the middle school. #wearepeterson #givingrise @MGPetersonAP @thegreatful8th
