Guidelines
1.
Students are allowed to have a partner (s) from A-7 class, but partners are not required.

Projects are mostly home projects with some time for in- class work.
3.
Each part must be legibly hand-printed or typed. Computers are available during
lunchtime on Mondays and Wednesdays.

The PTO will donate the board. The school may or may not contribute the
construction paper, if the desired colors are not available.
