Andes Central School District

The 8th grade CASE classes have graduated from Organizational Skills Bootcamp! From cleaning out and organizing their lockers and backpacks to breaking down large assignments to learning how to take notes and talking about the positive and negative aspects of their workspaces, the 8th graders have learned a lot about how they can be successful in school by staying organized.
