Social Studies
No supplies needed, everything is done on the chromebook. However, if a student is misusing the chromebook they may be required to complete work on paper.
Note: Many 8th grade teachers use an online learning management system, either Google Classroom or Buzz. Students complete many of their assignments digitally, which greatly reduces the supply needs.
Please go to the Central Valley website https://www.cvalleycsd.org/page/parent-resources and sign up for parent access to view your child’s work and grades on School Tool and Buzz.
