Tools for the Future: Explore the Unknown! Summer SOLE program at Monongah Middle School kicked off each day with the "Morning Meeting" where the theme of the day was announced including Circle of Control, decision making skills, goal setting. Growth Mindset, and Mindfulness. While wrapping up the project gram, students conducted labs exploring rocks and minerals along with a scavenger hunt where they identified minerals based on their properties. They also engineered their own hot air balloons, created their own comic strips to explain the scientific method and designed and built a small scale building.



















Dear Parent / Caregiver,

We feel that your child has been provided with a quality educational experience and wonderful opportunities. We would like to hear from you, and we are asking you to complete the Summer SOLE Parent/ Caregiver Survey. The survey is anonymous, takes approximately 5-10 minutes, and is completely voluntary.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
