Election



It is hard to believe that Election Day is only two weeks away. We will spend our Social Studies' time learning about the Executive Branch of government, the election process, and the electoral college. Students will also have time to learn more about President Barrack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney and their stances on the main political issues.

Mr. Smith's 7th grade class is going to have all students in the school register to vote and then participate in a mock election on November 6.

“Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.”
