Mrs. Kennedy's Website - 8th Grade Language Arts
Purpose of Website: Welcome to Mrs. Kennedy's website! This site is dedicated to parents/guardians and students. Throughout the semester I will update the site weekly to include important information that applies to my classes, including what we're currently studying, homework, and any other pertinent information. The intention of this site is to expand the path of communication in our educational community. I hope that you will visit it often. I will update homework every Monday, and include other new information as it occurs.
