Peer Leaders Advisor: Mrs. Aviles Meetings: TBA Media Center 2:45-3:30 Grades: 6-8 Activities Circle of Friends Advisor: Mr. Hodnett, Ms Shotliff Meetings: During homeroom Students both with and without disabilities meet weekly for breakfast in a general education setting. They talk, share stories and jokes, play games, and hang out together.
