Team+Lewis

=Team Lewis= == Welcome to Team Lewis! Our team is named for Meriwether Lewis who, along with William Clark, set out from Pittsburgh in August 1803 on a three-year expedition to explore the newly-acquired Louisiana Purchase and the land west of it, which would eventually become a part of the United States. For Lewis and Clark as well as the men and woman who accompanied them, this journey was one of great challenges that required perseverance, discipline, and determination to overcome as well as a time of incredible discovery and learning; all of this led to the team’s success. Our goal is that your eighth grade year will be one of similar exploration, discovery, learning, growth, and success.

In order to start your eighth grade journey prepared, you should outfit yourselves with the following supplies for your academic classes: 1 - two-inch, three-ring binder with three dividers loose-leaf paper flexiblew customary/metric ruler || **English/Reading** A notebook or designated section of a multi-subject notebook or binder A pocket foler or a designated section of a multi-subject file || **Social Studies** A pocket folder or a designated section of a multi-subject file || 1- 5-subject notebook || **Science** A pocket folder or designated section of a multi-subject file || **All Subjects** Highlighters || We are looking forward to embarking on this year-long expedition with you.
