 * Welcome to South Edgecombe Science! ** South Edgecombe Middle School 7th Grade Science

This web wiki is designed to assist students and parents in achieving the learning results they need in the seventh grade at South Edgecombe Middle School. To find out what students will study throughout the year, how grades will be calculated or what supplies will be required, a syllabus is available on the wiki for your convenience.

Being your child's teacher, I have the desire for all students to reach their goals this year. With effort and support from parents, it is possible for all seventh grade students to successfully complete science course work and be prepared for the challenges of the eighth grade. I look forward to this year.

Sincerely, Miss Bowser cbowser@ecps.us
