A Busy Week













On Thursday, November 19, MGP Summer Scholars invited their 8th grade FSK colleagues to join them for our third annual High School Night. Ms. Sophia Rudisill, Associate Director of MGP, described the high school lottery process. Ms. McDonald, 8th grade FSK teacher, and Mr. Basmajian, 7th grade FSK teacher, and MGP Site Director, will review the formula with their students.
On Saturday, November 20, two dozen summer scholars enjoyed the DaVinci exhibit at the Science Center. Students were amazed that DaVinci's inventions were so modern and to learn that his self-description as "also painting," even though he is best known for the Mona Lisa, was accurate. The 8the Grade Girls won the scavenger hunt.
