Grade 8 Student Dialogue Program -
The Camden County School Boards Association held its annual “8th Grade
Dialogue” program on Wednesday, March 5th at the
Eastern Camden County Regional Intermediate High School
in Voorhees.
Eighth grade student Kaitlyn Alibrando
represented the Raymond W. Kershaw School in Mt. Ephraim. Kaitlyn had the
opportunity to share her middle school experiences and recommendations to
improve education, with students from various middle schools throughout
South Jersey.
Some topics of discussion during this dialogue were state testing, science
labs, technology, school safety and critical issues facing young students
today.
Major concerns that the middle
schoolers discussed were: stress in schools, time management, self-esteem
and fear of failing. Kaitlyn will share her experience with the Board of
Education members at their March 19th meeting.
